in terms of each and every day, itās likeā¦ how to explain it? gender dysphoria often manifests as a feeling that something is wrong but you canāt quite figure out what.
gender euphoria, what I experience about as often nowadays, and more and more often, is that you know that despite everything, something is right. something is correct. something is true.

alright i think i covered my ass enough against the āi am blatantly misreading things rt genderā
I feel the need to do that since Iām cis-adjacent in a community full of trans people which makes my voice inherently less easy to believe in

a humanity that is chosen and not bequeathed. a personhood that you carve out for yourself, from the edifice of a person who was never truly real. to choose this path is to say: āI care about myself just as much as I care about the world, for I am a part of the world.ā
i donāt think being transfem is the only way of doing this but it fucking works for me.

for me a lot of dysphoria manifests in Nothing Is Real (which is probably also a bit of the . cptsd but its both)
and when iām euphoric it feels
real.
and god i love feeling real and connected with the world
i think anyone can have that feeling of being true to yourself, the earnest confidence to care for yourself as much as you care for others, the cares supporting one another, your love for the world and your love for yourself being one and the same. my personal way of getting it just happens to involve becoming softer, yāknow?
