discussion of fetishization of trans men / obliquely nsfw / tmi 

i feel pretty weird about being mostly attracted to men because. i'm trans. what i know about people being attracted to trans men is that its mostly cis women who fetishize the idea of men with boobs/pussy. not ideal

uh it's bad. also in general it sometimes feels like people forget that you can be attracted to men and still be lgbt. im not like saying this in any particular way or implying that lesbians should talk less or something. just a feeling i get sometmies

vaguely i feel kind of like an idiot for not being straight. because im a trans man so my options are Pretty Limited irt: people who will even be decent to me, much less fall in love & be attracted to me

and theres like hordes of really creepy cis women with trans guy fetishes running around out there insisting theyre cool allies. that would be really bad for me but i feel like despite my own appreciation of how i look, that most people will see me as too "girlish" and i will be unattractive to gay men

uh. i hope that taking hormones will help with this. give me more muscle density, change my face a bit, chin hairs, deeper voice. this is a very long way of saying i'm dysphoric and dont want to be seen as a cis woman
