Repression is a terrible thing. I'm proud of anyone who grew past

Proud to say I was never transphobic or homophobic to anyone except myself. Granted, we all have internalized transphobia due to the way society referred to us or put us down, but I don't think I've ever been unwelcoming to anyone else who is trans or ever put down their identity.

It's hard to not feel it toward yourself but maybe this will get better once I'm further along in my journey into womanhood, idk.

RSS subscription bot?

Neat! I should check it out. Sorry to make a post about this when I could have just checked the release notes first. 😇

Yeah I figured it would have to be enabled on a per-instance basis or for there to be controls on RSS feed posts (for example, make them ephemeral and local only until mods have approved them with an upvote)) as you wouldn't want it to be a source of spam.

How did you come out to a partner? Any strategies?

Thanks for the help. The difficulty for me is that I don't really feel depressed or unhappy, outside of the usual body image issues I've had since I was young. I'm scared to try estrogen due to the body changes associated, at least until I know what I feel is really real. Otoh, I've heard a lot that you have to try estrogen before you know for sure, so idk.

I feel a lot better after talking to my therapist but, like, I also feel just as unsure about myself as I was before.
