pride month

i thought i'd make trans flag 2

i like the colours on the og trans flag but i thought stripes were a bit boring so i went with a bit of symbolism.

since not only is trans seen as an 'umbrella term', but it's also an umbrella in the way that being under an umbrella protects you.

so it's shaped that way

stay strong, fellow trans people! we’re here for you

depressed during pride month

would be so nice to present as my gender in public, alas now i am just awkward

i went out, in public, presenting as my gender, for the first time today.

i even used the proper toilets

i had a nice dress on, a jumper on top of that, and black tights. it got pretty cold in the evening but it was worth it

i mean sure it was just bovington tank museum and i went with 7 cis male friends so there werent loads of people but i didnt see or hear anyone talk about it

it was great

my relationship with my family is like a rope with a fire under it that only i can see and only they have water

i could tell them theres a fire but they might think im lying, and then the rope will burn faster

my fear of them thinking that means i dont say and so the rope burns slowly

but them not seeing the fire makes me tense

the fire is me being trans

i saw my shadow cast on the wall and that my hair was finally starting to reach my shoulders and cried tears of happiness.

haven't had a haircut this year and it's starting to pay off. (any tips on growing it out faster)

i came out with my name and gender to my friends a few days ago and it went pretty well, they all respected it and have done alright at correcting themselves.

but one of them, who also is a bit problematic occasionally, has started like punishing himself when he messes up? like he hits his head on the table and shouts in anger? and im just sitting there like please don't?

just correct and move on, please, it's not about you

being closeted transfem like "yeah mum, not wanting to get a haircut is the hill I'm willing to die on"

fight me

morning routine nomi!

might shade a bit more and upload that version later but i do like this

if the kids in pokémon can say others’ pokémon’s names after they evolve immediately then you can call a trans person by their preferred name

i was feeling very depressed and dysphoric this last week but then i went to a friend's house and binged all 49 episodes of clannad which gave me both a renewed hope and determination to transition and a new hyperfixation

wow i’m honoured to have been given my award for “ best tran” i’d like to thank my dysphoria which when i was really doubting myself and almost thought i wasn’t trans really came back with a vengeance
