My family and I refer to Séan (my name while I was trans) as if he's a separate person. My sister might say “Séan was so angry,” or I'll say “Séan had my back.” If someone's unaware I was Séan and asks who he is, I say “Oh, I was Séan,” and I realize how fucking nuts it sounds.
No, I'm not nuts. My sister took to saying Séan rather than “when you were trans” because she felt Séan was a stranger and nothing like her sister. I say Séan rather than “when I was a trans man” because I've found it easier to talk about certain experiences by doing so.
So if I ever go on a drunken Twitter rant about some guy named Séan, don't worry, I'm just ranting about myself. It's surprisingly cathartic, actually. Even if it sounds fucking mental. You guys should try it sometime.
When I was first transitioning a family member introduced me to their trans dude friend, i think in an attempt to show me how different he was from me. (Totally backfired.) The GF of the trans guy started talking about “Jen:” jen was like this, jen was like that. 1/2
I finally said “wait who’s jen?” She was talking about the trans guy but before he transitioned. It was so very strange. I don’t even have an observation besides how awkward it was. 2/2
