I feel like many trans people, both male and female, seem to want other people to also be trans. I noticed it awhile ago and I know don’t why people want that. Maybe it’s wanting validation for your choices or feeling like it helped you so it will help other people too, but, whatever the reason, it hurts gender nonconforming people the most. We should be allowed to be how we are without being told we need to change ourselves. I feel like transition should be a last resort if nothing else helps you, not something that encouraged or pressured. If it is something someone needs to be okay, they will figure that out. Putting people into boxes because of how they are is regressive and anti-feminist. It reminds me of religious conservatives who want conformity, but this time is somehow like left and progressive. 😠
