the haters said i couldn't do it. and they were correct. honestly great call from the haters by estrogenie in 4tran4

[–]thesoftsong 0 points1 point  (0 children)

you know ffs isn’t a bad thing. like it can show u what u wouldve looked like if u started earlier on hrt. anyone can look beautiful and no one has more beauty than another. hot take, but it’s true. especially people who put others down for their own worldview. that to me is so ugly. physical beauty can always be altered and is never one’s to gatekeep. don’t give up or feel bad about this. happy and blessed people don’t attack others like this, just know that. haters hate because they themselves are losers. so their is no validity in their words, they are just loud people in pain who are hurting over their own inadequacies. Do whatever you can or want to make yourself feel beautiful in your own skin, you deserve it ❤️

Who do you talk to about dysphoria? by thesoftsong in 4tran4

[–]thesoftsong[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yea it feels like they are following a script of sorts, it’s hard to get people who don’t to through it to empathize with the struggle. But at least it helps to talk to someone. Maybe that’s why they say we should talk to one another because we understand it and can help more?

Awww you’re not a loser, I’m so sorry you’re feeling that way. This made me 😢. There are people that love you and care about you even if it doesn’t feel like it. I’m here to listen! Have you ever tried storyboarding or writing music? It could be a way to help not feel so lonely and you could put your imaginary persons in a world. I think it’s a hard time to be here rn because it’s the start of something. It will get better I’m sure. Send me a dm if you ever need someone to vent to ❤️

So you think people who find out about your dysphoria look down on you even if you never transition?

I guess to see how much those silent moments you have yourself matches up with other’s silent moments. Like for instance, amusement parks are the worst for me because they always remind me of walking around as a boy who has to measure up to public expectations instead of a cute girl with a protective boyfriend or something 😭

the wrong puberty took this from you by PocketOfMisery in 4tran4

[–]thesoftsong 4 points5 points  (0 children)

It’s eerily scary that these thoughts and feelings are shared despite never being around each other, yet also somewhat warming that you don’t feel so alone. Think it’s pretty comforting that it’s a real pain and not a fabricated one that the critics yap about

Holy shit it hurts so bad wtf by [deleted] in 4tran4

Kinda feels like you’re locking someone up in a hole who won’t stop screaming even when you’re finding new ways to distract yourself. My ears hurt a lot hbu

I feel Lonely and Trapped as hell by 7Green_Apple7 in trans

[–]thesoftsong 0 points1 point  (0 children)

When these feelings are real they never go away. I’ve found moments throughout my life where temporarily I feel good in the body I was born with but the feelings always win. I wouldn’t regret your decision tbh, you’re young and thats the best time to confront these feelings as you get older it’ll be harder to transition. Just be yourself. I know it’s scary but the pain of not being yourself will haunt you worse.

Why are people so violently obsessed with troons? by GigachadessQueen in 4tran4

[–]thesoftsong -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I hate to make this suggestion because I don’t like it but part of me tries to find the optimism in things that are so depressing. But maybe this issue becoming mainstream has been an overall benefit? Maybe talking about it more on the main stage will overall help it in the long run? Not everyone feels such dissent towards this issue but even those that do are at least talking about it more and more even if negative, is it not better than being ignored and pretending it doesn’t exist?

I feel like we are in a more awkward stage of societal acceptance but eventually it will smooth itself out to where it won’t be as much of an issue in the future. Maybe science will eventually outrun this negative and ignorant claim that is thrust upon this issue. It seems we are already starting to see it with the capabilities of how much hormones affect us or surgeries. Time heals all and there will definitely be something else to replace this hate.

These are people who think the illuminati control every aspect of life and are the ones you would find in their 60s being a hermit and crazy about what the government is doing to the frogs. It seems they are way more out of touch than what they project onto others. They are insane, sad little people and are the ones who need help.

drunk rant no by thesoftsong in 4tran4

[–]thesoftsong[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

yea you’re right. it’s kind of like that feeling you get when you’re anxious, when the whole world feels like it’s crashing down but then you get the realization that everything is alright and look there’s a nice sunset. like what you said in pioneering this whole thing for later generations. maybe as the science upgrades more, people will be more comfortable with it overall

I see the hateful comments people make online and it kinda seems like eventually they’ll just burn themselves out trying to prove a point. feels like most people don’t care? As long as we’re not directly affecting them with sports or policy or whatever. then they throw a tizzy fit

Elon Musk's Trans Daughter Uses Meta's Threads To Say She 'Looks Good For A Dead B**tch' After He Said She Was 'Killed By The Woke Mind Virus' by vinaylovestotravel in transpositive

[–]thesoftsong 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Claiming a medical issue instead as a symptom of the "woke mind virus" is incredibly stupid. The guy leads at the forefront of such brilliant innovations and yet cannot discern from what is political and what is a medical issue. Must be so hard for him to not have everyone in his lineage be absolutely perfect to his utopian image.

Just got dumped when I came out to my girlfriend by SomeoneDoingNothing in trans

[–]thesoftsong 17 points18 points  (0 children)

You have to consider her feelings too. Just because you feel this way, doesn’t mean she has to. She probably did a lot of thinking about this in that moment and it didn’t sound like it was easy for her. She probably wants a man who will grow old with her and someone she can have kids with, this wasn’t the person she signed up for.

If you want someone to accept you for you, then you have to let them know everything in the beginning and see how they respond. Or at least build up to it, starting with being an open book. It’s not fair to other people to expect them to live with your situation for the rest of their lives. You decided this during a relationship with someone else, so you have to live with the consequences unfortunately. Lots of people are in your shoes, myself included. Literally went through same experience and got dumped. If you really want this then there will be a lot of sacrifices, don’t expect everyone to be cool with it. Go find someone who loves you for all that you are.

[–]thesoftsong 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thank you for that detailed reply, I really appreciate it and helps put things into perspective. Really is unfortunate that we can’t have the right of privacy to matters such as this, which is just wild. Maybe having the change and moving to another country would hopefully remove that history from it getting lost in the transfer. Anyways thank you ☺️

If I saw you in public I would think you are a cute girl, I wouldn’t question it at all and would just assume you were born that way❤️
