I think it's diabolical that there is still a debate about trans women and their gender identity.

They cannot be erased from history and no matter what any court says, they will always be real women.

unless you literally want to crack open your rib cage and have me crawl inside do NOT flirt with me.

they should make an august for grieving and being blue all the time and an august for.. well. enjoying the summer and living your life. and they should be in the same year
