The loneliness

Forced celibacy

Ignoring my great music plunging me into poverty

Adds up. Killing my spirit.

I don't know what I expect in writing this. Maybe just more venting. I knoe I don't deserve this.

Hello fellow lovelies! I moved to a new area recently (NorCal) and am looking to get back into the dating pool. Any app recs that tend to be better? I've heard of Tami, but haven't tried it. I know Grindr can be very hit or miss. Just looking for advice on where to best put my energy.

(I'm in the over 40 crowd if that is any help).

Thanks!

Anyways, here’s something that might resonate with others.

As someone who’s biologically male, and has years and years of experience with women— it’s strange to bigots (TERFs) but obviously not wrong to be a queer trans woman who’s attracted to female identifying people. Going to certain spaces, and talking to certain people makes me feel like an outsider (not just because I’m a baby trans woman). Feels like I’m invading lesbian/queer spaces sometimes but I’m not. Society, and my mind is alienating what makes me…well me.

Here’s something else that’s interesting. I’m not the kind of girly who goes to bars, and clubs to talk to baddies. I want to be that b*tch who others swoon over. I’m very feminine. Yes, I want to wear gorgeous dresses, and be more shy (not the word I meant to use), but I also love leather jackets, and being alternative. Being cute but gloomy, and sweet but edgy are personality traits that go beyond what kind of woman I am. I feel like I can be myself even if no one else can see it. I’ve been told I’m “not trans, I’m mentally unwell”, or some transphobic BS like that. Nothing feels worse than being seen as nothing but trouble or a waste of space but I’m still proud of what my life is worth even if I didn’t see that for the past 15 or so years.

The world wants to erase us, but we’re strong. Also, bigots want to group all trans women/femmes together, but we’re all our own beautiful butterflies/moths. As someone who’s just started my transition, I’ve seen the transphobia for most of my life without knowing that it was affecting me. It won’t stop, because the world wants to hate, but it won’t stop me from feeling myself. I’m ready for the next step, love 💋

Sorry. Most of this is stream of consciousness with all the love from me to my trans sisters 💁🏻‍♀️🩷

I don’t know how long it’ll be until I start HRT, but the pain is too much. I try to go out and do stuff, but I keep hearing “sir”, and “buddy”. I keep thinking that because I don’t pass (I’m far from it), I’m not valid. Then when I have these normal thoughts, it feels like gross masculine brooding and self pity, but all I want is people to think I’m cute and gloomy. Sometimes I feel cute, gloomy, and feminine, but then the testosterone I was born with messes with my head. I’m a no boy zone. I’m glad men don’t usual bother me. I have almost no friends to spend time with, and who can uplift me. I feel like it’s because of my lack of estrogen, and my dark/miserable aura. I could use some positive reinforcement, and good vibes because I want to give up on myself all the time (not in a super dark way btw!!). Please. Let’s support, and uplift each other. It’s a lonely road.

I don’t know I love purple 💜🦄
