(Anonymous) 2015-08-15 10:18 pm (UTC)(link)But do you have someone you can talk to about it, preferably someone irl that knows your situation? It might help you to get your thoughts in order.

(Anonymous) 2015-08-16 06:47 am (UTC)(link)Then imagine she starts to present, and instead of refusing to accept her, they DO accept her as a woman, She's passing, it's great. Then the other shoe drops, and she has to face all the shit that comes with being a woman. The misogyny, objectification, the being completely devalued as a person, the stuff that she never even realised was there because she'd never had to live it. Can you imagine how crushing that must be? To be recognised for what you are and not what society sees you as, only to be hated not because you're different but because you got everything you wanted?
Now here's the bit I didn't want to being up because it sounds so MRA. I lived that, but with the genders reversed. I'm a transman, I was accepted as a man. and the hate the disgust the violence the systematic stripping my myself and my values it was more than I could handle. And there's no good support for that. The majority of the internet says "Aww poor manz" The trans community who I'd come to believe was my people says "Suck it up, you have what we all desperately need and you're still not happy" and the MRA says "Yeah feminist bitches have ruined the world, wait, you're trans? GROSS!" when the only people who care about these specific issues are assholes it shakes your sense of self. you start thinking, "Hell, maybe I'm one of these assholes? Maybe I've always been an MRA scum-bag, and just needed it to be unlocked" maybe the internet is right to say "Aww poor manz" and maybe when everyone thought I was female I could disguise what a horrible wreck of humanity I am under it?
OP - If this is what you're going through, I'm sorry, but there's no coming out of that. You have to decide if it's better to be true to yourself and hate yourself as a scum-bag, or if you can live a lie where everyone feels bad for you and you can pretend to be a good human being.

Do you have a good psych professional to go and talk to? I'm not sure if you've seen one yet (where I live you have to before you start hormones), but regardless of what you decide to do, having extra support right now might be nice.
I know other people in your life are probably going to have strong opinions about what you should do. I think ultimately you've only got to answer to yourself, and do whatever's right for you.
There's not really a 'one size fits all' way to live, even as part of a pretty small community.
Hugs if you want them.
