Cross-resharing, much less from Tumblr, is rarely something I do, but I saw this sappy thing about transfem feelings and getting over the self-deprivation that egg life was and it kinda hit me, so now y'all have to see it too: www.tumblr.com/planetarytra...
I have a trans loved one that this definitely applies to, and my god it's so hard to watch but so hard to try to pull her out of... I'm not close enough to her to really force it y'know? But I see this in her and I want so much more and better for her.
I became so hollow, so convinced of the burdensome nature of my existence, that my only remaining desire was to disappear from the world quietly and unnoticed. It's been three years since then and I still struggle to believe in my heart that anyone would willingly carry that burden.
As someone who is a trans woman at heart but living as genderfluid by circumstance this was incredibly painful to read as I can tell I'm still doing it
(lying to myself so i dont have to change) diminishing desires is good actually, because there aren’t enough resources to go around. im doing my part to save the planet,
Well yes I did all of that but actually I am perfectly well adjusted today and definitely don't do any of those things no don't look at my bedroom or ask me to count how many irl friends I have that's a non-sequitor
hi, my love. i forgot to go back here when you mentioned it again (the next topic change threw me when i came back to a couple hours of notifications) but here i am. and now i've seen that part you mentioned no one commenting on.
jesus christ you're good at this.
Well I can already tell that this is gonna be this month's banger, so I'll just leave this here on account of my partner being so far from out of the woods.
I’m not trans, nor fem, but good lord did this hit me hard and made me cry. I’m trying to undo decades of suppressing wants and needs, and trying to not be a burden, and to accept help and love. Thank you for sharing this.
