    I need to be active in validating myself and saying something like, “good job dude!”

    Huh that is interesting. My sister gave me the tip of literally patting myself on the shoulder after a hard day and saying “good job.”

    I wonder if it’s something like this, because as silly as it feels, it actually does trigger a little something - I guess like this feeling of self-solidarity, is how I’d put it.










  • I used to think that. But the amount of people hiding it, or just coping, is probably higher than you think.

    Like I live in a pretty small city with an average gay community, and all it took was one person coming out as trans for a bunch of others to go “oh you know what me too - let’s do this,” so now we have like a whole posse of trans men that I see at the gym all the time (with their gains and their cool names lol).

    I’m not saying this is always the case by any stretch, but if someone is super butch or super femme, they might not be cis.
