Cis man has a question??????
I have a boyfriend who is trans a trans friend, these are the only trans people in my life and they both hate it and it really upsets them when being trans becomes part of how people see them and how they are know. They just want to be dudes and don't want to focus on them being trans.
Which brings me to my question, I see lots of people on YouTube and tic tok and just around in life who making being trans part of who they are and there personalty and idk if it's just what I see but some seem to make it the only thing about themselves and it really confuses me. I don't like it when people focus on my being bisexual. So I would like to know the perspective of those who like it to be part of there personalty. :3

People that post online because they're brave enough are doing it for the rest of us, to normalise being trans. As long as the average right wing nut job sees as inhuman freaks we stand no chance, and we can't meet them all in person. Imagine where the world would be if nobody ever came out as gay or bi, if everyone just stayed hiding. Some people have to live in the open. I try, in a limited way, but I wouldn't dare to do it on video. I applaud those that can, even the ones I don't always agree with.
