The life of being a trans woman of color is to constantly be forced to center everyone in conversations that should only pertain to you and you alone.
White trans people and trans people who aren't women constantly want you to include them in conversations that don't have anything to do with them.

Can't talk about racism from the trans community cause that makes white people feel bad.
And if you ever so dare talk about your own shitty life everyone sees it as an invitation to trauma dump.
Can't say fucking anything in most spaces cause you always gets some "You like pancakes so you hate waffles!" bullshit.
It's exhausting.
"Well you should know that I, a person who is not a woman, experience the same thing and other stuff!
"Cool, can I finish bitching first?"
"Why do you have to turn it into a competition?"
The irony of people who tell me are the ones who do.
But sadly not everyone can be as cool as them. Instead I'm often greeted by weirdos who cry when you call them out for sexist behavior.
Surely someone else is tired of constantly having to defend herself from crybabies.
Not interested in babysitting trans people who are often older than I am.
it rarely feels like they're trying to relate to me, to sympathize. it feels like they need to take the spotlight.
But I know it's fucking annoying.
I just wish everything went well and being treated well
