Yes yes, i know. “Internalized Transphobia” is almost a buzzword now. Used by Theyfabs to talk down on actual real trans people with real dysphoria. But that doesn’t mean it doesn’t actually exist.
I see so many posts on here about “I am not a woman cause I don’t look like one” or “I’m so malebrained, I’m probably faketrans”.
Do we not believe in ‘Neurosex’ (or whatever people call it now) anymore? You already are a woman/man regardless of how you feel or look right now.
And yes, I know that won’t magically fix your dysphoria, but it’s important to not make your already very shitty situation even worse by constantly trash talking yourself.
There is also no fucking thing like “faketrans” or “male/femalebrained”. Yes I use these terms too, as a joke. In an ironic way. But I’m starting to feel some of y’all are starting to actually believe that bullshit. “A lie told once remains a lie but a lie told a thousand times becomes the truth” ~Joseph Goebbels (lmao ik)
Sorry if this comes off as preachy. I’m just trying to help. I know we wanna doom here in peace. But maybe sometimes posts like this one are necessary to not completely lose hope.
Love you all.
I’m halfway serious but some of this stuff is actually true. Well I’ve realized that it isn’t going away, my mind is too far gone and I have to troon out. And I actually did my first injection today. Sometimes I feel dysphoria and I’m miserable, sometimes I don’t and I feel normal, sometimes I see myself as feminine and I feel euphoric. I presume it is strongly linked to bpd which I might have. I had similar kind of mood swings and phases in the past, before I had ever had dysphoria or troon thoughts. Right now dysphoria is a catalyst for bpd which I’m trying to eliminate. Ultimately the best thing would be to accept and to embrace the pain in my life, become accustomed to it. Not see it in a negative way.
