And do you, you non-dysphoric “trans” person, think that this is because being trans is so cute and cool?
Do you think it’s because trans people love their body?
Do you think it’s because they just don’t like dresses and pink?
Do you think it’s because they just don’t like football and blue?
Do you think it’s because they’re perfectly fine and not suffering a serious illness?
Because if you do. You’re wrong.
It’s because trans is more often than not a living hell and doesn’t have a single upside outside of tumblr.
It’s because they dislike or even hate their body and feel dysphoric about it.
It’s because they were supposed to be men but were put in a female body- fashion has in most cases nothing to do with it.
It’s because they were supposed to be women but were put in a male body- fashion has in most cases nothing to do with it.
It’s because they’re not fine at all, and honestly- how could they be? They are suffering a serious mental illness.
Trans is not your aesthetic.
Please stop this ridiculous trend and leave the trans community alone. You’re fucking everything up for us and making us into a big joke.
-sincerely, a dysphoric trans person.
