    Hey jsomae, thanks for your curiosity.

    Of course everyone can understand that having something like severe underbite is terrible. However, it is still a different thing.

    I am trans and living in the nl. When I am outside for an afternoon I am insulted at least once. On average three times.

    I’m the sweetest person you’ll ever meet, and I’m basically a quaker when it comes to pacifism. Yet I know how to hurt people really badly and carry a knife.

    Any more questions? ❤️

      Thanks for your reply. I didn’t realize the Netherlands had it so bad: I assumed they were open minded about lgbt stuff. My condolences, and I hope your conditions improve.

        Yeah, it’s not as bad here as in many other places. Healthcare covers at least a few things, but it takes years before someone can even take a look at you and there’s still discrimination there too. I pay 250 a month for healthcare plus ‘own risk’ every year, yet I pay my own medicine and have private healthcare from the uk in addition. I use home compounded medicine, otherwise I can’t function. I am close to homelessness and receive 0 support from the state.
