The hardest, but most important, part of my transition has been untangling what my personal dysphoria is, and what is more a result of cissexism.
What I mean by this is that I learned that I am not dysphoric about certain aspects of myself, my body, and my life, but my discomfort in these aspects was influenced by the cissexist culture I live in which told me I couldn't exist as myself.
It's definitely a slow process, but I have found that it helps me self-actualize and actually see myself instead of what others demand of me.

i really hope boy and girl and guy and chick and dude and stuff just completely loose all gender connotation. and i hope our previous grasp on gender dies out as we acknowledge that its just a concept, just a little way to describe yourself. and i hope terfs dont find my account

honestly I would be wayyy too ok with getting kidnapped by the yandere!batfam...
like, they live in a giant house, they're rich af and can get you anything you want, you don't have to have a job, no responsibilities...
there's so many of them, i would have more social contacts than I have right now, even if they never let me go outside and talk to someone who isn't them!! add unconditional love to all of that and I'm SOLD. I can deal with their clinginess, i would only like them to maybe slowly ease me into hugging all the time bc I'm not used to that... but even if they're not open to compromise it's still a pretty good deal imo

" Is it alright to cling to you?
To invent meaning where it is absent?
I fear my words won’t grow up with me,
still scuffing their knees on cement.
I can welcome a lie when it's blinding,
But I can’t write like a poet while blinking.
I can’t draw like an artist without hiding.
I can’t live right now without thinking. "
-words, by me.

semi-dark king merlin au, someone from ealdor tells king cenred about merlin and he is captured and held as a slave in essetir. since merlin despises captivity and servitude, he’d rather be dead and free than alive and in chains so he acts out and pisses people (especially the king) off so they’ll think him too much trouble and kill him. at first they stick to beatings until merlin manages to get his chains around a few necks and now has a body count so they kill him…..only he wakes back up a few hours later and king cenred is Intrigued and keeps him close. merlin keeps acting out but no matter how many times they kill him, he won’t stay dead. merlin has this moment after waking up perfectly fine after his twenty seventh death where he is hopeless and believes there to be no escape, not even thru death. a few other sorcerers in chains come and help him clean up and give him a lil peptalk, realizing him to be emrys, and then they revolt and take over the kingdom and crown merlin as king and now uther is like “wtf” bc his neighboring kingdom who was kinda sorta on his wavelength about sorcery, though uther did not approve of keeping them alive, is now a kingdom ruled by magic. he goes to war with them but with magic running free and fucking emrys on the throne, they don’t make a lot of headway. anyways merthur meet on the battlefield, enemies to lovers, you get it
