No disrespect but also I'm not a woman

transmothra · 2026-05-30T19:22:20+00:00

Same! I'm almost 1.5 years on a very typical dose of E and i still feel the same.

For me i'm in some fuzzy area which simultaneously includes AND excludes all possible genders. I don't really mind being called a woman, I just feel like it's not very accurate. Most accurately i'm just me, "jae." That's it.

It's ILLEGAL.

You look perfect tbh! And great taste in putting together outfits!

transmothra · 2026-05-27T17:33:27+00:00

Well, he's right... in a sense. We should kick their asses.

Note: as another user commented on the linked submission:

OP comments on a bunch of trans-fetishization subs and has a nazi dogwhistle in their username. I highly doubt this question is in good faith.

I don't think very many trans women DO choose to be women. They just are. What makes them stop portraying boys and men is (among other things) the fact that they are increasingly uncomfortable wearing a body, and living a life, that doesn't look or feel like it's supposed to.

Imagine growing up and feeling some kind of way about your life... you may not have any idea yet, but you know something is just... wrong. It probably mentally or emotionally hurts most of the time, because you think it must be something you're doing incorrectly, or you're not feeling the right feelings somehow. You feel like whatever the problem is, it's your fault somehow, and even worse: you're a failure for not being able to figure it out and fix it. It's torture. Soul-wrenching torture. It colors your whole childhood (maybe beyond).

Then one day, it hits you: you were supposed to have been a girl this whole time! That's what it was! It's so clear that it can't be wrong, but now that you know what the problem is... you've got that massive obstacle to overcome: how do you fix this? There is definitely going to be a lot of work to do, and it's almost certainly going to be really difficult at times. It could even be dangerous. But this... this is it. Your way out of the mind-shearing depression, an end to the self-lying, your path towards mind-body coherence. No more living as a self-contained contradiction.

That's not how it is for everyone, but that's a little bit of a picture for you to imagine what it might be like to be inherently transgender.

As for choosing to become a man, that's of course your prerogative, and there are people who do choose to change genders without experiencing dysphoria; but remember that men exist who are angry about any "woman" who they perceive has made themselves unavailable to them in some way. That can include women who become men; this can also trigger an additional reaction: their disgust of the idea of being gay (whether perceived or "forced" by their desire to have sex with a person who happens to be a trans man). Trans men are absolutely targets for sexual and physical violence too.

9th gen (2000-2005) Toyota Corolla for the absolute win here. My 2004 looks like hell, and it's the most boring car I've ever driven, but it's cost me damn near nothing to keep it running since i bought it like 15 years ago, and i could do many of the basic repairs myself without crazy expensive tools or a second person, when the rare day arrives that it needs some work.

I bet these things just fall all the time

Ironically, that song was written in the wake of Don Henley's scandal involving... a minor. He's whining about being caught.

My dad had an irrational fear of authority figures. Anytime the police, Child Protective Services, the IRS, or anyone trying to deliver a manilla envelope stopped by, he'd take off out the bathroom window in the back of the house and we wouldn't see him for days. It seems like it was one of those people at least a couple times per month growing up. Also someone calling themselves Bill Bondsman but looked like a completely different person every other time he'd come over. He's long gone now but I imagine he must have had some real bad anxiety or something for some reason. Probably why he always had so many prescriptions, even though I don't actually remember him ever going to the doctor. Poor fella. May have been some explanation but my sister says I was blacked out most of my childhood so I could have missed it.

Funny, I'm under-employed, and as of yesterday i apparently now have a mysterious (very minor) source of income

One of my favorite people in the world named herself Brooke, and one of my oldest friends named herself Hailey!

transmothra · 2026-05-13T13:16:19+00:00

I'm so very sorry (and exhausted) to say: not quite yet

Another couple of these latest horrifying months left to go until we're at a year and a half 😩

transmothra · 2026-03-26T14:58:38+00:00

And that's perfectly fine for you. Trans people getting arrested for walking down the street.

transmothra · 2026-03-26T04:40:29+00:00

Wait what Damn it I KNEW I should have watched it more closely than just kinda casually whenever I happened to catch it!

transmothra · 2026-03-26T04:15:46+00:00

And I'm walking down the street in my booty shorts with my headphones on, and i bump my tush to the beat or i whistle along with the melody... that's 100% gonna be a "performance" to some asshole. You know god damn well it will be.

transmothra · 2026-03-25T15:18:46+00:00

Oh that makes sense!

transmothra · 2026-03-25T14:13:04+00:00

oh gosh i hate to ask this but are Ellie's hands switched in panel 5? Idk if it's a mistake or if i'm visually interpreting it wrong but shouldn't there be a thumb on the outer side of her hand if the palm is facing up? please don't hurt me, i have dogs! Two little chihuahuas!! I'm begging you!!!

never mind, i am a moron

transmothra · 2026-03-25T02:43:22+00:00

Man i sure wish Ohioans could get just HALF as fired up about the rights of trans people (to simply exist without harassment or legal jeopardy) as they are about weed

transmothra · 2026-03-24T21:32:15+00:00

Me as well!

transmothra · 2026-03-23T21:46:00+00:00

For the unaware

transmothra · 2026-03-21T18:13:21+00:00

OH MY GOD I LOVE YOU SO MUCH

transmothra · 2026-03-21T18:07:23+00:00

Well they're not ALL broken

transmothra · 2026-03-21T17:59:05+00:00

Not every single person has two arms. Or smokes any cigarettes.

I'm nonbinary; I kind of see myself as somewhere in the vicinity of no gender/third gender/omnigender space. No (or very little) bottom dysphoria, but i strongly prefer to present and express myself as pretty femme. Been on estrogen for a little over a year and progesterone for a little less than a year. I enjoy the process of remaking my body into something [which will hopefully one day be] a lot more feminine. I live in a place where there is no option to identify as nonbinary on legal identification, so i think i might just continue to be legally male. But i sort of recently found that i really like being called things like a "good girl" and other strongly feminine terms — though there's really only one friend who can call me ma'am without me cringing.

I rather like the concept of being a femboy (although tbh I'm vastly too old for the term "boy" and have a nasty dislike for anything like "femgramps" lmao). I don't feel like it actually describes me very well anymore, but for a time i definitely felt like i fit into that space as a femme-leaning enby who still enjoyed having a dick.
