I remember reading physical comics that looked like this in my childhood, so this feels like the trans-positive messaging I never had as a child. Felt oddly healing.
Also, I don’t think I’ve ever seen my feelings as a closeted trans woman captured so perfectly. The way the seductive promise of gender euphoria constantly weighs against concrete real-world terror… the mermaid analogy is going to stay with me for a long time.
As a witch, we don’t curse trees, that corporate polluters you’re thinking of. Witches love nature. 😁
So fucking true.
The way I look at it is that it takes considerably less effort to be anti-trans, or even to be a cis ally, than it does to be trans. Therefore, it’s important for us to be ourselves, at the very least for the purpose of dispelling all this trite people say about us.
Most people that are on the fence on “the trans debate” (🙄) simply just do not know any trans people in real life. Only one way to fix that!
