i feel like one of the weirdest realizations you (or at least i) eventually have a few years into transitioning and being mostly around other trans people, is that moment where u notice that like ur brains mapping of like specific voices to specific genders is just kinda gone. like it rly is just all social constructs programmed into u by society, and living outside societies idea of gender just kinda melts that shit away, and it’s not just voices, like other traditionally gendered attributes also suddenly don’t matter anymore*
*except for myself of course, i am obviously totally failing at being a girl but everyone is doing it perfectly, dysphoria is so awesome lmao
the real deep message here btw isn’t just about gender, but about the general ability of the human brain to shed off bad socialization and habits if we change the environment we’re in for the better and i feel like that’s massive
