Yeah its weird. I dont have issues with ppl being fem, I just feel like an outsider not fitting the aesthetic. I also have more community with transfem ppl, but not knowing transmascs at all makes it an issue. I blame marketing and queer capitalism alienating a whole wing of us. - ThreadSky

I also think there's issues with ppl raised to diminish themselves and transitioning and finding themselves still diminishing themselves because men take up too much space. Which is obviously an issue but I think it does create a weirdness for transmascs to tackle internally.

I also still feel it in my core to make myself as small as possible. as if the cultural pressure of growing up as a girl isnt enough, the religious upbringing and indoctrination make it near impossible to beat

Fr. It was the most paralyzing feeling when I first came out. I've been transitioning for about a decade now and am only now really discovering my voice and learning that it is okay to take up space.

Everyone deserves to take up space and I cant let society tell me that because my roll has changed I still need to stay small. I can take up space and allow space for others and have a healthy level of interaction with the world.
