Personally, for me it’s the idea that just because you don’t experience something (dysphoria, or being a gender other than what society expects of you) that doesn’t mean those experiences aren’t valid.

I get sooo tired of the response “I just don’t understand! I love being my AGAB! Why can’t you just get over it?”

    Good point. It puts us in a position where our identities are invalidated unless we “put on a show” to somehow convince the world we’ve never experienced a bad day since our egg crack.

    “Oh, you’re having a bad day? Must be because you’re not actually trans.” -_-
