When I came out as trans I heard more than once âah okay thatâs what it is. We just figured you were gay.â I got flashbacks to my dad telling me, more than once, that if I was gay I could tell him and he wouldnât care. Fuckers knew I was a fruitcake and just couldnât figure out what flavor

My mom did give me a speech about not letting Boys exploit me but once when mentioning a hypothetical romantic interest she went âhe- or theyâ so I donât know if she has any clue.

i like the idea of having a girlfriend but theres been so few cases i felt attraction to anyone and at those times too i was offput by things. i felt peer pressured more than anything. and family pressured, feel like i have expectations that i should have a girlfriend. if those didnt exist id probably not bother at all, maybe, i dunno

ata the start of uni orientation the students who were mostly leading it were like âok everyone time to go around the circle and say our names and pronounsâ
and then like almost no one said their pronouns and I was like âwell ok Iâm not going to out myself thenâ and followed suit in only saying my name
âŚI found out MONTHS later that the entire reason they did this exercise was because they were kinda reading me as trans and wanted to know, specifically, what my pronouns were

well the context is just that it has only been a day or two and a lot of staff had been she/herâing me and i hadnât been correcting any of them, which they realized when they discussed me
but i think that was probably just me being autistic more than anything
I do not know why they didnât simply have someone go up to me and say âhey Arete what pronouns do you useâ

i disdained being repeatedly asked in highschool âis there any girl? :3â by family like repeatedly asking me if i have a girlfriend. my grandma started asking for grandsons since i was 21-22. like piss off granny

Okay in their defense, it can be taken the wrong way if youâre the only person they ask. Like âhey Arete, youâre looking pretty clocky todayâŚâ
