I'm coming up on my first full year on T, and the hostility from queer white spaces is insane!!! Before I started T I was very accepted and considered almost tye "friendly neighborhood spiderman" but I feel like as a started to become more masculine those same spaces are starting to almost demonize me and outcast me without reason or explanation. I've noticed most hostility coming from gay white trans men specifically. Wtf is this about bro🤦🏿‍♂️

Afternoon Bros,

So I'm in my 30s. FTM. 9 months on T. All in all, I'm really happy with the way things are progressing. My only issue is I'm a straight man, and I always feel like the odd one out or like I'm doing something "wrong." For one, I've never met a straight transman in 3 decades. I feel like the more I transition, the more I get pushed out of the queer/LGBT arena. I'm starting to feel less welcome in queer spaces in general, and I can't really pinpoint it, but I feel like I'm almlst started to be treated as an intruder. Even specifically in the trans community, it's starting to feel like "NO BOYS ALLOWED." maybe im overthinking.

Has anyone else experienced this?! 🤦🏿‍♂️

Edit: I've also been feeling demonized for not conforming to a unisex or soft boy esthetic. I feel like because I refuse to present this way I get wrongfully labeled with a hint of toxic masculinity and that's not what I'm trying to do, I just personally don't like to place myself in an "other" box.

Today is the first day that I feel like the man I'm supposed to be . I got dressed, I tied a tie today, I put on my work clothes and ahhhhhhh. I finally feel like me. I am A MAN , I AM THEE MAN 💪🏾💪🏾💪🏾✌🏾✌🏾☮️
