"you don’t owe anyone a single explanation about who you are or how you define yourself." super true!! Ive never transitioned (or detransitioned) but i still relate to the process of cycling through labels to try and find the "perfect one" that described me and how i felt. I sort of thought that if i found it, then it would make me easier to understand by other people. easier to digest. In the end it sort of made me feel a worse alienation than the one i was trying to get away from in the first place, I kept deviating from what was "required" for those labels and groups, then i was off to find a new one that would surely fit me better than the last. Never happened. Never found it. I slowly realized that I don't HAVE to be understood by everybody. i don't HAVE to have an easy way to explain something thats not easily explainable. I think if someone wants to know what type of person i am, just get to know me then you'll see. |
errrr idk why majority of this is highlighted in white...

LOL but exactly!!! I feel like it gets a point where everyone gets caught up on their own image rather than taking care of themselves and focusing on what they themselves need. If anything labels should be used as more of a guide to finding yourself rather than a complete group you need to keep yourself in
