Up front, Let's please not make this a political argument. I'm very interested in all of your responses, and if we go all politics, the mods will do their job and shut the thread down.
However you see yourself, for the sake of this discussion, I am proposing we all fall under the umbrella of some level of gender dysphoria, so please chime in.
There is so much hate and misinformation out there, and even violence on both sides of the extreme.
I'm just interested to know if all the attention, good and bad, is making your life more difficult as you deal with your dysphoria?
If so, how and what are you doing to cope.
For me, it has made me hyper aware, and has caused me to refrain from any comment at all on topics regarding the issue outside of very closely controlled environments, like this one.
I'm petrified of the potential fallout if I inadvertently out myself. I don't really do anything different since I live alone and work from home, which means I dress every day, unless I go out, but my interactions with others are restricted because I just don't know how they are going to react and some of my close friends have developed rather extreme opinions both ways.
Thanks.
To the mods: I specifically put this here, because this is the community I live in when I come to this forum and these are the girls I know and care about, therefore, theirs are the opinions I am interested in. Thank you for understanding.
