This has always bothered me like yeah I get how a lot of eggs instinctively try to hide their transness as a result of growing up in a cisnormative society and how pushing too hard can be counterproductive but, like, where’s the harm in just telling someone “hey I experienced that too and it turned out to be a trans thing, maybe it’s something like that for you too?” Like, there’s countless stories of queer people who struggled with their identity simply because they didn’t know it was a thing; no one told them. And yet, when it comes to trans people there’s this whole culture of not telling people they might be trans! It really does feel like transphobia

Like being trans is this shameful thing that shouldn’t be broached directly. It also feels kinda like a repackaged form of the “groomer” narrative where you should avoid “influencing” an egg into being trans
