Anonymous asked: Huge admirer of your work and I also have a narcissistic parent. I just wanted to say that I empathize greatly. And while I personally think I'll never completely get over it, I hope that both of us can reach a point in our lives where it no longer affects us on a day to day basis. Sorry if this is creepy. I just get really emotional reading about narcissistic parents.
It’s not creepy, it’s totally okay. Like, it’s not a common problem and I always feel like I’m whining but it’s something that’s really affected me. It doesn’t bother me on a day-to-day basis anymore because I don’t live at home. But my dad’s birthday is this week and I am slightly freaking out because I know I should do something but I don’t want to because he’s just going to be an ass about it…
It’s easier to pretend I don’t have a dad. (`c`)

Anonymous asked: We have so much in common in pretty much the worst ways. Gender misalignment (and SUPREME INDECISIVENESS/ANXIETY FOREVER regarding it) and social anxiety and anorexia and suicidal tendencies and a poopoo parent and all that. I've always admired you so this makes me sad but also admire you more I guess?? er well not admire but I can't think of the word I suck gosh can we just hug now
You don’t have to admire me! Admire yourself because that’s a lot of stuff to go through and you are doing it!! It’s super hard and exhausting and shitty and you’re strong and awesome!
At least take just a moment to admire yourself. I’ll do it too. We’ll do it together.

Last night I was talking to these guys in class, trying to tell them where the print shop was where we had to pick up our math workbook. It’s their first semester here and they had no idea where anything I was explaining was, but they sort of just nodded and I left it at that. But then when I was packing up to leave I saw them go up and ask the professor to explain where it was and she was telling them the exact same things I was! So I asked them if they wanted me to show them where it was, even if it was closed. It is kind of tiny and hidden.
I did it and they were super nice and we made small talk and I was super nervous the whole time and I wanted to cry and throw up and my teeth were chattering but I did it! I was social even though I didn’t have to be!

When your mom wonders why you hole yourself up in your room every time you visit while simultaneously screaming about how excited she is that all her GIRLS are here and how it’s GIRLS NIGHT and GIRLS GIRLS GIRLS
I WONDER WHY I DON’T WANT TO BE A PART OF THAT MOM
I WONDER WHY

If you sent a link I didn’t get it. :(
Anonymous asked: Now that you put it that way, I actually agree. Oh, and just to clarify, I don't see it as a 'trans*man reality show'. I just kinda went ooooh gosh another reality show about someone who's famous because their parents are famous ick. I just think any meaning behind documenting someone's changing life goes out the window when OH GOD I BROKE A NAIL THE DOG BARFED ON THE CARPET CRY happens :\ idk. But yeah. Yeah..
Well, yeah, having a reality show is a privilege he gets for being wealthy. His life definitely does not mirror the lives of the vast majority of trans* people. The show is definitely about him and his life as a trans*man and not, you know, about trans*people or helping trans*people.
I just don’t think it’s fair to ask him to be different or more noble just because he happened to be born into a wealthy, high-profile family. He’s not the posterchild for trans*people and I don’t think he’s ever attempted to be that… which is why I say that I just think he’s trying to live his life.
There’s another reality show that is on the same channel about a young trans*girl named Jazz… that one sounds way more interesting to me. But I really can’t deal with transphobia on tv so I probably won’t watch it. It just breaks my heart.

Anonymous asked: I just think that if he wanted to live his life, he shouldn't have his own reality show. Maybe if it was a documentary about his procedures and everything he went through and blah blah it'd be considerably less annoying, but it just seems like he's exploiting his gender reassignment. Makes me sad :( I'm worried he'll be Kim Kardashian's next husband.
If we can have reality shows chronicling the dramatic lives of rich white people then I think we can also stand to have a reality show about the life of a trans*man.
He never had the choice to be “stealth” about his gender reassignment. It was all laid out in the open for the whole world to see from the very beginning. His reassignment was exploited by others and would continue to be exploited with or without a reality show. I see it more as him reclaiming something that was out of his control and turning it around for the better.
I didn’t even know he had a reality show until I read this ask and looked it up ahhaa. And I won’t watch it or anything, but that’s kind of just my view.
