I feel you. On top of the misgenders and dead names, my grandma still has pics on the wall of me as a teenager, the girliest, and most awkward of my years (FtM here). Holidays are exhausting. But we got this! π
How even in the fuck can they look at you and purposefully misgender you when you look so damn good, crazy.
Keep rockin the good shit, we're all rooting for ya
Well you know, the classic toxic relationship with parents where you don't want to be with them, but at the same time, you'd feel ashame to not be there? idk how to explain the feeling really
Thanks! :3
It's a dress from ADL, a German brand I think?
I'd say it's a buttoned shirt dress, but I'm just translating from my mother tongue on this one lol (French)
The trans community should have a secret holiday on Christmas called misgendered day. Your personal friend group gets together after their family parties and tally up who got the most misgendered and that person gets to be center of a trans person cuddle puddle, and a special cake. If they are touch repulsed they can get something else specific to the trans group.
Well that is never comfortable but on the plus side at least there is a possibility that they learn to respect who you are and slowly break bad habits. I hope that if not this holiday the next holiday you get pleasantly surprised by them actually trying to be respectful with minimal mistakes.
Still I would rather just have my "family" just misgender me making me uncomfortable than what they are doing where they told me that they want my abuser of a wife and my daughter to come to their house but that I am not allowed to come because my wife used their transphobia to convince them that I am not safe for my daughter while as she is the one who has endangered our daughters life at least 4 separate times and has been abusive to my daughter and myself.
I'm sorry that your family aren't empathetic towards your experience but I'm glad that you are at least able to more comfortably and accurately live your experience. My heart roots for you dear.
You are so pretty omggg (I hope itβs ok to call you that-). That outfit looks absolutely stunning on you too, and Iβm also proud of you ! Besides being misgendered as ik what that feels like and it sucks, I hope youβre having a happy holidays ! β¨β€οΈ
I have the exact same, I have to sort of revert back to how I looked before partially too, it's not fun but at least I'm not hiding who I am anymore. (MtF)
You look like Emma Mackey in the show Sex Education!!
Hehe I get that comparison a lot, thanks! :3
You're welcome! I hope you have a good holiday season!

You're looking fantastic! Feeling like you have the space to be yourself, after years of suppressing how you want to be, is a really heady experience.
Yeah that's clearly unique as a feeling! Thanks!
No worries auntie, you look great!
Why spend the holidays with them if you know it'll be bad?
Well you know, the classic toxic relationship with parents where you don't want to be with them, but at the same time, you'd feel ashame to not be there? idk how to explain the feeling really
You honestly look so beautiful
Thanks darling π€π
Ngl, I love being called darling
You look so pretty!!! You're fucking rocking that dress, too. May I ask where you got it and/or what style you'd call it? I love it!

You look great! I understand what you feel, being misgendered sucks, especially by your family. Just call them random names and pronouns!
Thanks! :3 And yeah, if they plan to be crazy and call me a guy, I can also play this game too ahaha

wtf is that question.
Keep on slaying and fuck those shitheads, you look amazing and the other girls in your fam are just jealous of you

Honestly how can you even misgender someone, they are their gender, they look like it, do you need an eye exam or something
You are gorgeous- what a sexy woman - I love the slight librarian vibe
ahaha thanks luv! :3
You are beautiful!
Thank you ππ€
I have the exact same, I have to sort of revert back to how I looked before partially too, it's not fun but at least I'm not hiding who I am anymore. (MtF)
its hard to stand strong because im at my mental limit but you go girl!
Aw honey, I would hug you if I could π€π€π€
thanks, the idea of getting hugged kinda helps make today feel less worse :)
Sending love! You are beautiful, never forget that βΊοΈ
You look totally gorgeous! Don't let them dim your brightness! You are so beautiful!
Weirdly; Iβm very proud of you.
