I've had some TERFs in my mentions, so I'm going to write a small thread on how embarrassment and self-hatred kept me from transitioning.
I didn't know any trans people growing up, or in college, and so my first exposure was hearing about trans people as a political issue.

I never found trans people funny myself, but I knew that other people found them funny, and this was painful to me.
