    Holy shit are you me? I stopped watching creators when they transitioned, I avoided trans creators when they popped up, I actively avoided this space, even the word “trans” would make me feel certain ways. I would cringe and shy away from stories and articles involving trans people. But at the same time I was completely supportive of trans people and trans rights. It was a bizarre last two-three years of my life.

    It’s like I knew if I engaged with it, my egg would crack. And yeah, it was this com that finally shattered it. Silver lining is that now I have a backlog of content to catch up, a whole new kind of content to enjoy, and a great community to talk to.

    Anyway, I know exactly how you feel. cat-trans

      Haha, I find it so funny how often we say this to one another. It’s really good to be able to talk with everyone here about it.

      I’m glad I’m not alone. I remember not so long ago you coming out and showing off your avi, and you were so happy.

      Kind of weird to be on the other side now trans-hatch

        It is truly bizarre how many times everyones experiences overlap on here. I definitely love having this space to post about it.

        I remember not so long ago you coming out

        It’s only been three months and it already feels like a lifetime ago. It really does feel like a past life or something. I really am so much happier now though.

        One of us! One of us! cat-trans
