@Melissabeartrix 20 years ago i didn’t know anything about trans people besides having vaguely heard of christine jorgensen, and that “you have to live as a woman for x years before you can get ‘the surgery’”. No idea that HRT existed. Then a former college flatmate transitioned (15y after college), then my eldest kid did. Later I learned a number of women in my profession that I happened to admire were trans. And even later i realized “holy fuck what if had had known what I know now when i was twelve”. I am so mad at the culture of ignorance i was raised in.
