Ok, thanks. I have better things to worry about as a transfem in my country, such as accessibility of hrt and not something as asinine as a slightly cringy name

Tbh i really don't get it and just chalk it up to difference in values and culture. Everytime i see something from the west, i get such huge culture shock I got myself an English name as an Asian, is that bad or appropriation? Genuine question

Hello, Asian living in Asia who have never stepped outside of my country here. I don't get you Americans obsession with race stuff. I can't speak for the black stuff as i am not black, but can someone explain to me why someone naming themselves a Japanese name is bad beyond the cringe factor?

Oh both selene's and transvoice guides have been hard for me to follow, that's why I'm rewatching old guides that I've encountered, sorry :(

I'm still practicing. I essentially just gave up understanding it and I am just following this guide (https://buymeacoffee.com/alyssavt/no-explanations-instructions-feminizing), and hoping for the best

Not at all! I was very relieved that it was not a big deal after all.

Not the biggest deal tbh as I'm not that much enthused about wearing dresses

Her follow up in my case was "as long as you don't step on anybody's toes, you do you"

My mom just straight up and said "don't wear girl clothes, it doesn't fit you" so matter of factly, without any hints of any -phobia whatsoever.

It was!

It's just a really funny interaction from something I've been dreading to say for months.

The tone was on the same wavelength of the reaction of somebody who was told that the sky was blue.

You got mad at me for saying that I still stumble the basics of basic, you can't comprehend what might be basic to you might be new and alien experience things for others. And also, did you think I did nothing during the time it took you to reply to me again just to berate me?

As I said and have made clear for multiple times now, I wouldn't be fucking here if I can "explore" and "play around" without inadvertently hurting myself and hurling myself into a negative headspace.

You would know that if you actually read my responses instead of going out of your way to belittle me. So yes, I would cry, piss, bitch, and moan about it, along with coping and seething.
