Got to chapter 20, think I'm gonna pause there but I don't have any particular comments for the past 5. Thank you for posting about the book it is good, knowing me I'll probably finish it by Friday.
Also I do just read quite quickly, my usual pace is like 50-60 pages an hour but I'm a bit slower with this one on account of all the typing

Yeah I'm sure there are other people that had to repress for a long time but... Idk. I think I am just hung up on the particulars a bit. Like I don't know anyone else who got outright kicked out specifically for being trans. I know there are plenty that exist since it's a stereotype for a reason, but I don't know any one person who went through that who would be able to tell me that hey, it gets easier at some point, just keep going ahead and it'll be okay. Fuck, I'm making myself cry.
Yeah okay, that makes sense. Good to know.
Trying to be an alternate to that kind of space is good. While I wasn't on /tttt/ so much of trans reddit is babytrans dominated that I think I understand what you mean about not really having such people when you were starting out. Frankly the two elders I mentioned basically did fuck all, the rich one tried to help me but she was /tttt/ rotted to the core and even back then I knew that was a bad thing.
FUCKIN AWESOME HAPPY TO HELP
convincing somebody to read Orange Book is one of the highlights of my posting so far. Also damn is that ever fast.
big sad
It's weirdly not that common online, I got kicked out by my mother's husband for being trans though. I guess maybe not explicitly, but he always hated his wife's weird queer, never once came close to respecting me. Couchsurfing sucks, and getting kicked out for being trans after repressing so long sucks worse.It actually does get better though, I promise
Yeah, that's... yeeeesh. It might be presumtuous to elect myself elder I guess, but I want the beloved babytrans here to have anybody to look to, other than like Idk, some brainrotted rich kid. Obviously we don't have that here and I'm far from the only long-transitioner, but yknow. All the incredibly nice stuff you and everyone else said when I was whining the other day firmed up my resolve about this, if I can be any sort of a positive example or voice of reason or whatever for nerds who are just starting out, I fucking have to. I needed me as I am now when I was 15. At least you knew being brainrotted was bad back then lol, I was kind of innoculated by reading Nevada but I hated myself a lot for a long time...
Thank you

That must've sucked, I'm sorry.
I guess there are also just more people here who've had to that I just, didn't notice due to being self-centred.
Nah you're fine most people don't really talk about it
