trans people do not owe you their backstory. they do not owe you their deadname, their pre-transition pictures, their coming out story, their heartache. trans people who are stealth are not “tricking” you, trans people who are open about it are not “faking”. there is no one trans experience, no specific narrative trans people have to fit.
also, if you’re trans, i love you! remember to drink some water today.
