I transitioned not for any social reasons. If anything, I assumed transitioned would mean I would be ostracized my friends and family and I was prepared for that.
I transitioned because the moment I experienced puberty I recognized that it was deeply wrong. I always wanted to look more like my mother, but I realized then I was on track to look like my father. Whatever anyone says I’m not a man and never have been. I don’t want a deep voice, or to be hairy, or have big muscles, big feet and hands and a pronounced jaw and brow bone. I find men attractive but I would never want to have their bodies. Unfortunately, I wasn’t allowed to have puberty blockers so I was forced to go through a male puberty which permanently affected me, but the moment I was 18 and free I got hormones and stopped that nightmare. That was 15 years ago and I didn’t end up losing my friends and family and i’m married now. I ended up looking like one of my aunts. I’m so happy i got to transition but I do wish I could have started before puberty.
I really do feel like there are two clusters of trans people and Fiora is in one and you’re in the other. The few trans people I’ve met and properly interacted with neatly fit into these two categories where they either could tell from a very young age and have very strong feelings on the subject and transitioning is great for them, or they’re pretty online, often autistic, often leftist, often lonely.
