Gay Transmasc - Tumblr Posts

no but this is important tho bc this kind of "all men suck and r misogynistic and evil" attitude is why it took me until i was 23 years old 2 accept that im a gay, genderqueer trans guy, i spent years knowing that i wanted 2 b a guy but i kept telling myself i couldn't b bc i thought if i let myself b a guy i would transform into a horrible evil misogynist bc i was taught by every1 around me that that was an inherent part of being a man, i spent years knowing that i was attracted 2 men but living in fear of my own attraction bc i was taught all men were dangerous, it sucks and it especially sucks seeing this post trying 2 point out this issue only 4 me 2 c it thru a reblog were the tags r saying that men all suck, i get that 2 a lot of u this is a joke but 2 me it's years of fear of myself and my attraction keeping me in the closet, it's the fucking hardship and trauma of being gay and transmasc and brought up on this bullshit "men = evil" terf logic and then its also the fear of speaking out bc as soon as u bring up that sexism is a 2 way street [women r infantalised and men r demonised] and in that way it's unique from other forms of bigotry then ppl act like ur some sort of incel youtuber or smth, like no karen i just think that sexism is shit and is also often at the root of transphobia

the other day i was talking to this one bi girl i know who has a boyfriend and she said something about it being really unfortunate that she likes men and has a boyfriend and that just hit me really hard. cos like?? im masc nonbinary and have a boyfriend and i love loving men and being a guy. i hate the notion that men are inherently bad or that loving men is a bad thing
