#so like. i am genuinely actually a bit worried about transphobia in this country recently #i'm not normally rattled by things and tbh i've assumed for a long time that the average person is not that trans friendly #(to the point where i'm still surprised when friends and colleagues are actively offended on my behalf) #(when i mention an ex-friend misgendered me for three years. i'm like 'wow. so. this WASN'T me over-reacting') #ANYWAY. i can't deny that despite how good everyone i know is #the fact that puberty blockers have just been rolled back. that we've had a particular testosterone brand shortage for years now. #that the teen gic is shutting down. that it is genuinely more acceptable to be transphobic (see jk and their merry band of transphobes). #these have all got me low key worried #recently has been the first time that i've been like. probably not going to be! but. could actually be attacked or harassed #just a little tiny voice that notes it as a possibility #i hope i'm just being overly cautious #but i do wonder what my sister's reaction would be if i were attacked/harassed. i wonder if she would think i had it coming
