You don't need to medically transition to be valid quickly in some circles becomes you mustn't medically transition because you're valid. I internalized and worked through this myself. It's cool if people don't need to take hormones for example but I do
yup!! same experience here. and for me that reinforced the things i heard from the doctor who turned me away from hrt in the early ‘00s - i wasn’t actually trans enough, i couldn’t take up space, etc. it took a lot to work thru that
in my experience hearing that i was valid without taking any meaningful steps toward transition did not help me to force that closet door open, people encouraging me to take those steps did
