I've had a few people in my life that asked me why I chose to come out of the closet at this point in my life, after living most of my life as a woman. Well, I have a way to explain that. There's a comic on tumblr that resonates so damned clearly on my experiences as a trans person living outwardly to the public eye as AFAB until my transition is well under way and I'd like to share that comic with you all. #LGBTQ #TransLife https://www.tumblr.com/taurussystem/737970747238203393/this-comic-actually-describes-what-its-been-like
@PaganMother People really wonder why someone would do something later in life that they didn't get to do earlier?
@AskTheDevil Yeah it's a really common question actually that people have asked me when I came out of the closet to them and one of the first questions I was asked was why didn't I transition sooner and my answer to them is quite literally my circumstances in life. Most of my life has been in at-risk areas that could pose more danger to me a threat to my life. In fact, if I did so I had to squash a lot of it down just to continue stealthing for my own safety. At this point in time, I don't.
