Honestly, it isn't as bad at all. With no discounts, a night train (especially Mon - Wed) from Vienna to Hamburg is like 80€ in comparison to a flight that only goes as low as 120€, and that only if you book half a year in advance.

In all fairness, Hamburg probanly isn't the cheapest destination by plane but I chose it because it's somewhere I sometimes go.

I just hate that this meme is how all the people should act who say that being LGBTQIA+ is a disease. But nope, it's discrimination for us instead.

I somehow managed to be in a sort of omnisexual relationship with my ex.

I'm a trans girl, full in her transition (legal name change and everything) and suspected born inter. My ex was a trans girl early in her transition and hadn't had her legal name and gender changed.

  • for transphobes (my dad), we where in a gay relationship
  • for the government, we where in a straight relationship
  • for outsiders / regulars, we where in a lesbian relationship
  • in actuality, we where in a aroace relationship where gender just didn't play a role at all

We somehow managed to represent every single letter in LGBTQIA

 

For context: This Monday I came out to my work colleges and asked them also to call me by my new name and pronouns. Everyone is very supportive which is all that I could hope for. The only issue is, since in my family noone calls me by my actual name, not many people in my life actually call me by my chosen name (at least up until now).

With everyone at work calling me by my chosen name now, it actually feels quite a bit strange, uncomfortable and even a little embarrassing.

I did talk to my therapist about something like that once and he said that, yes, I am stepping out of my comfort zone and yes, that is uncomfortable but it's a necessary step to get better.

And yet, my brain still slaps me with that sweet sweet imposter syndrome like "how can you be trans if what you want is making you uncomfortable" and so on.

And now I'm here, asking you for similar experiences you've had to hopefully get it through my fat skull that it's a normal thing to feel (hopefully).

So. How long did it take you? Did it just click for you or was it just as uncomfortable as it is for me?
