Curate, connect, and discover
sometimes it’s really hard to be trans. i came out to my best friend today, and she’s stopped talking to me and has blocked me everywhere. i’m not out to my family, because it’s honestly not safe for me, and i’m not out at school for the same reason. this is the only place where people know i’m a boy. sometimes it’s really overwhelming to be trapped, knowing that it will be so long until i can be out, if ever. and i’m scared too. the world is terrifying for queer people. i want to have a future as myself, but i don’t know how possible that is in the US. i just wish i could look in the mirror and recognize who’s looking back
