i'm not a transgender american but i think you might be overestimating how good transition might be under a democratic president. at the end of the day do you really want to live inauthentically for four or more years because of who's president

it could literally be a matter of life or death now, I don't blame op for feeling this way.

two of my trans friends killed themselves during the trump presidency and MAGA is successfully and increasingly associating trans identity with pedophilia. pick your favorite transphobic slur, your favorite far-right forum, and your favorite search engine, to see what the winners were and are saying about us

most americans believe in christianity and we're living like the world isn't burning. people actually believe in christianity! that's wildly delusional! not transitioning is, like, third or fourth on the list of ways i'm living inauthentically

i will feel meaningfully safer and more secure in a life under trump if i don't continue my transition
