the privilege of support systems for trans kids…

[bendyplate_]

“When I was seven i was playing in the sand” EXACTLY. You’re not trans so you don’t understand how it can take over your whole life even from a young age. She is still happy with herself so clearly it wasn’t a mistake. Ignorant people smh

[rowensspell]

You guys have to get it through your thick skulls that she didn't medically transition until a legal age to do so. What she probably means is at age 7 she was just wearing dresses, etc.

[LovemeGodforever]

Moms can be supportive/unsupportive wether they’re black, white, Asian, Indian etc. let’s not get it twisted

[dolfinn-wsbc]

ffs she transitioned socially not medically they didnt have a seven year old getting surgery it was a seven year old wearing a skirt and being called she. she could have stopped at any moment.

When I was 7 I would steal my mothers gloves to act like Iron man…

When I was 7 I was convinced I was a velociraptor. I'm glad my parents did not transition me into a dinosaur.

At age 7 I wanted to join Ash Ketchum & his crew as a Pokémon trainer.

Bro let these women love their lives as long as they feel it wasn’t a mistake it’s all that matters.edit:the reason I call them women is because that’s what they identify as

[BTRshow]

At age 7, I went outside and screamed as hard as I possibly could because I thought I could go super saiyan

[Nolan]

At 7 I had become one with the universe and was taking advanced telekinesis courses.

“when I was seven-“
being trans doesn’t have an age limit 💀, just imagine coming out to your parents and them saying “sorry you don’t reach the age expiration to be yourself.”

At age 7 I was contemplating on how the krabby party was made by making burgers with different ingredients…..

[greatvaluetom]

At the age 7 I watched car crashes, then I’d go upstairs and recreate them with my hot wheels.

[EightyHakii]

At age 19, I'm STILL making potions in the bathroom to make me invisible.

I started asking to buy from the boy’s section around that age, and I remember being delighted when other kids identified me as a boy. Didn’t even know trans was a thing-my parents were extremely conservative and this was the 90s. I was very sheltered. No one groomed me. I just fucking knew. It felt right and being perceived as a girl felt wrong. I tried to live as a girl after puberty hit me, because aforementioned parents. It was awful. I knew at 7 but I didn’t know what to do about it until college. The people who say they weren’t thinking about these things at 7 weren’t thinking about them because they didn’t have to. Because there was no conflict there like it is for trans people. And saying ‘oh, I was doing xyz at 7’ as if trans kids aren’t also still just playing and being children in every other respect is dumb. I knew I wanted to be a boy AND I was playing in the sandbox back then.

At age 7, I thought I was a dolphin so I hopped around everywhere with my ankles crossed whilst talking only in dolphin trills.

[JM--]

When I was 7 I was yelling at the TV because the referee didn’t catch someone cheating on Monday Night Raw

[katohypekato]

When I was 7 I thought I could Kamehameha if I screamed hard enough 🤡

[bimkybugs]

“When I was 7-“ did you know that trans people are most likely to have been trans their whole life without knowing for the first 10 years, this is coming from someone who’s been trans since age 8.

[SammieKCIAFFFLLTGF]

When I was 7, I was figuring out how to squash the imaginary beef between my Barbies.
