Reposted by amanda 🪻🏳️⚧️Revenge of Princesscore @princessrevenge.bsky.social · 19hive said it before but i think “u dont have to be trans to transition” is so much more helpful than “u dont have to transition to be trans” bc it prioritizes agency and self actualization over ruminating on identity indefinitely 11962196
