I don't think I'm allowed to post, but I came across a very sad post about a straight woman who is willing to marry a man that plans to transition right after their wedding. She's going along with it out of fear of being a transphobe, despite being sickened by the idea of her soon-to-be spouse's transition.

She says, "I am sick to my stomach thinking about this. When I think of them transitioning I feel grossed out. When I see them in femme clothes (even though it's been years) I feel angry and bitter. When they act femme, I cringe! And then I feel angry and sickened by myself for feeling that way! It's a vicious cycle. Am I being transphobic? Or is this normal? How can I stop this? I feel sickened by myself. I didn't want to post this before because I was scared of getting attacked on here but I really want to change. I need help.

I know I am not being supportive right now, I am being tolerant and that's not what my partner needs."

I feel really bad for this poor woman. She's convinced she's the problem.
