  • Most of my coworkers tell me I’m weird because of my morning routine. I have a 30 min commute to work but I wake up 2 hours before work and, apparently, that’s not normal because I should be waking up 35 minutes before work, rush to the workplace to check in just in time and then start my day.

    But you know? Waking up with time, enjoying my breakfast, taking care of myself with my skin routine without having to rush and then leaving to work knowing that I am on time even if something happens gives me a peace of mind that they simply can’t understand.














  • You know what kills me about all of this? It’s that, as a transfeminine bun, the typical trans-misogynistic shit being thrown my way is that I’m just a guy disguising myself as a woman to invade “real women” spaces, to which of course, the answer always is: Guys don’t need to put in this much effort to invade women spaces, they just walk in like they own the place and it’s enough.

    This is one of the things I hate from most of men (with the usual exceptions). They can’t understand the concept of someone feeling different from what they’re supposed to according to the genitalia they got at birth. And even worse, as you say, is that they will feel entitled to every space but will have a problem if you try to enter (with a just reason) the same space they are invading.

    The reason for this is the entitlement. They own the place (or so they think), so why can’t they enter? And most importantly, why can YOU enter while they can’t? I think the transphobia you suffer is motivated by this. They are pissed because they are excluded from a place where you can enter and they don’t like it because this society never trained them to get a no for an answer.
