Love yall but I gotta be real sometimes self care actually is just dolling yourself up for a day. Not everything has to be a self bludgeoning mess of cross-gender experience intersectionality 100% of the time.

It should be fine to just be a feminine trans woman and like things that women like, but I guess that somehow becomes a talking point for "not being the perfect ally" if you're not cis..? Sounds like run of the mill transphobia in a trenchcoat of progressive language to me.

Anyway, haters drown, real people are not 'rep' and I and most others are not figureheads of any kind of social movement just by existing. I'm a human being who lives on earth.

#self #rant #im soooo sick of irritating cis+ and babytran people coming in hot with takes about how #'liking makeup is not progressive' or whatever #or like shooting to be conventionally attractive is somehow bad rep #like #im sorry? i happen to be a real human being #nobody complains when a cis woman likes that stuff #oh but a tranny?#gotta ve self oppression #*be #like alright #its always from a specific group of ppl but i shant say who lol #cough cough you know the ppl because they claim to be trans but dont transition at all but use their identity as a cudgel against trans wmn #every fknin time #just cause it was bad for you doesnt mean its bad for everyone
