one of my closest friends posted a status saying "cut off my dick and call me Caitlyn" on facebook
it seemed transphobic to me tbh, and i know it was probably intended to be because my friends is very anti feminist and somewhat antigay
i will never understand what it's like to be transgender
i don't know what it's like to wake up, look in the mirror everyday and think "this isn't me"
i don't have any desire to change my self
i don't experience dysmorphia because of my sex
i was born a female and i'm okay with that
but there are hundreds of thousands of people living in america, and millions around the world that aren't okay with how they were born, that don't believe they fit the gender that was suited for them at birth
they wake up everyday desperately wanting to be themselves, but are terrified of the hate and discomfort they will experience from peers and in some cases, their own family
we shaped a society that is so deeply rooted with the ideas of gender roles, and it kind of sucks, because people can't be who they want to be
maybe gender roles were okay back in the 1700s when we needed men to use their upper body brawn to hunt and women use their brawny cunt to uphold a body (i'm really proud of this punnery haHA) and people were insensitive and didnt care if you didn't want to give birth and take care of kids
but now we live in a country with 318.9 million people. i think we can pick and choose at this point what roles we play in society and cater to our happiness. let your son play with dolls and your daughter play with cars. and if they grow up wanting to be their true selves, you let them.
so yeah, stop being transphobic, don't hate something you can't understand.
to all my transgender followers: i love you stay strong im here for you if you ever need a friend, i may not relate to you but i will always support you no matter what
tl;dr: GET YOUR HEAD OUT OF YOUR ASS AND WAKE UP. IT'S THE 21ST CENTURY. SOME PEOPLE ARE TRANSGENDER. GET OVER IT
sorry if this rant was all over the place. i'm angry rn and i can't articulate properly.
