Saaaame. It really fucking sucks figuring out your true self just as fascism starts to rise again.
The variety of negative emotions I feel from this makes me want to shut this part away from me again. But Idk if I can do that again.
So now I get to think about:

How fem can I dress without risking too much of my safety? And how fem is too fem before I need to worry about using a public bathroom? Do I need to ask my friends to go to the bathroom with me now just to feel safe enough?
Fun times.

Fwiw, going to the bathroom with a group of friends is one of the pluses of living as a girl, and it's always been partly about safety but also about emotional support, so do that. Keep yourself safe and live long and prosper because fuck 'em.
