@LadyMont@spinster.xyz @Chronic-Yonic@spinster.xyz I "should" have been put on puberty blockers too, for all the same reasons. But I also had all the signs of, and indeed did have genuine dysphoria - from as young as I can remember, I only ever played as male characters, all the way back to "galloping" around the playground pretending to be horses age 3. In all my dreams, including before knowing what dysphoria even is, I have a male body, aside from a couple of nightmares specifically about having female anatomy. I hated so so much being female, I couldn't see myself as a woman, I was pretty much as "true trans" as it gets, by even the most conservative rules I should be transitioning. But, I genuinely don't want to anymore, and I can't imagine how much harder all this would be if I was detransitioning on top of everything else. It doesn't help anyone. It's my body, there's nothing wrong with it, and my past mental illness caused by misogyny and homophobia doesn't change that.

@Wildebeest@spinster.xyz @SwampWitchHerbalist@freespeechextremist.com @FloozyDarlington@spinster.xyz I can see why, though, I hate so much the thought of accidentally flirting with a transbian so I'd like to think I could tell, but with how young some of them are transitioning now it's pretty difficult. And I know I've been at least wary of women before, which I do feel really bad about

@vxlriye@spinster.xyz @hard_no@degenerates.fail lol it's a "scientific" term? It was first coined by a chemist because it's a term in organic chemistry to describe the arrangements of certain molecules. She wasn't a professional in a relevant field at all. Is it scientifically proven true valid if I identify as benzene?
