i lost basically all of my friends after i tried to tell them about my experience being raped by a male who "identified" as a trans woman. they insisted that a traumatic, awful experience for me must have been made up to support "TERF ideology". being a woman, especially a lesbian, feels so fucking lonely these days. i am hated by my supposed community and i am hated by most straight people too. i completely relate to her experience. i have no idea where to go or how to find community now.

    thank you, that honestly means a lot to me. i have gotten more involved in radfem spaces online and my impression so far is that these spaces are very kind, welcoming, and open to respectful discussion.
