whoever was the first person to make the observation that transphobia against transmascs is rooted in this kind of paternalistic misogyny whever everyone asks like they’re just poor confused widdle girls who don’t know how to make decisions for themselves was so SO right about that. like I’m not even transmasc but it’s infuriating to see these posts every other day being like “do you realize that these medical procedures are IRREVERSIBLE?? If you get top surgery it will PERMANENTLY take away your breasts. If you go in testosterone it will PERMANENTLY change your body??” When the obvious fucking response to that from anyone who’s even considered going through with any kind of masculinizing gender affirming care is
Like transmascs (teenagers and kids included) aren’t fucking stupid. they’re not too ignorant or impressionable to make decisions for themselves.
