  • since it seems you are not very knowledgeable on trans people I’ll start off by thanking you for asking a genuine question. Your heart is in the right place and you are trying to learn and that’s much better than a LOT of people.

    Second off, “transsexual” is kinda a term in history that was used very negatively and is seen as a slur used twords trans people. I would highly recommend editing it out for the word “transgender” instead. (unlike reddit, you can edit posts on Lemmy if you didn’t know)

    Don’t worry about it too hard though, as long as you’re not intending to be rude I don’t interpret it that way. When I first came out there were so many negative words and awkward questions I had to teach my family about, it’s very normal to make mistakes when you’ve never been educated on a topic like this.

















  • If you get a therapist/psychiatrist to sign off and get the vet to confirm it’s ok

    also...

    she’s genuinely the only reason I didn’t commit suicide in January of this year, I was ready to betray my family and friends but just the thought of her being in my room sleeping with my body was just so sad that I broke down at work and got admitted to the psych ward for 8 days. Only last week is when I have trusted myself to have a sharp pocket knife again.


  • also she’s in my dorm room in all the pics, she has more space but hardly ever goes out there as she’s pretty shy. Roommate has a cat and they seem to get along decently, she’s pretty scared of him but he doesn’t wanna start a fight so they don’t really have issues. Hopefully they’ll warm up eventually.
    Even when she had a 2 story house she just either sat at the downstairs glass door, at my desk, or in my room. Mentioned it to the vet once and he said it’s not an issue as she’s a pretty healthy weight and is really lovable.

    still feel kinda bad about keeping her inside 24/7 so I take her outside once in a while but she mostly just sits in her carrier or eats grass lol
