trans bodies

I’m not interested in looking cis, but I do want to figure out how to look like me.

If gender is a performance, why is the costume so uncomfortable?

Trans people have always existed, even when people have tried to erase us from history.

I tore off the shirt. It didn’t matter how soft it felt against my skin or how masc it made me feel, I couldn’t get over the horrific reality of how I would look to other people. I was grossed out by my own body.
