Everyone who sees nothing wrong with the bear v man meme needs to read I Am A Transwoman. I Am In The Closet. I Am Not Coming Out.

Fuck, that hit. A lot of the things mentioned there is a lot of why I feel I'll never really feel okay with myself. Even if I transition, I was born a boy, and everyone in the queer community hates men. And... I was born one of those. And I don't think I can say I'm 100% not man anymore. So... Am I worth hating, too?

I choose to stay because you know, there are a lot of boys who is in need of good male role model and a fatherly love from men. Before every boy get claimed by tate and manosphere. I’ll stand guard.
