Not giving a d-a-mnnnn what people think...

[wannalivethetruth]

Im super extatic today....first off let me start off saying.."before anything im human" and it actually took me awhile to realize this. I FINALLY come to group that...im going to be myself regardless of rather anyone likes it or not. *claps*. Earlier today...i was on the phone with my aunt..and we were discussing easter pictures. She told me that we could do something with all the girls and all the boys...i just assumed she was putting me in that boy group again..well FINALLY  reached my breaking point in caring what others thing, i laughed and chuckled...and said "im not going to do that one then" she asked me why not and i said "it does not make me comfty." Knowing my aunt is the very loud and outspoken type...i stood up to her and i said no...im not doing that...ill be in the girl one all day...but not the boy picture. This feels good because after so long of being shamed...im not...its freakin gets tired of thinkin about what people are thinking of you! So for all you other trans people that really wish

I really think that we all get to the point where we don't care what others think.  We may not say that, but I do think it comes into play.

I don't think it's not caring what others think...I believe it's accepting ourselves and standing up for ourselves and letting others know this is who we are and we are proud of ourself

I have a situation I'm in that I've come to the "I don't care anymore" feeling. My mother doesn't know about my feelings wants to talk to my S.O's mother. My SO's family knows about how I feel because my SO told them. I thought to myself "zomg I need to call them and ask them not to say anything".... but then had the feeling wash over me that I just don't care. I don't care to hold the stress of hiding in me anymore. Granted, I'm not going to get on the phone with my mother any time soon to tell her that I can't stand what I am but I just don't have the strength to ask my SO's mother to keep a lid on it.

If my mother calls me up some day and says she's had an interesting conversation with my SO's mother, then I'll have that conversation with her.

you couldn't be any more right. who cares what others think? who died and made them the rulers of our lives? as a matter of fact, i've gotten to hate any formal events now. i just know how much they have pained me before by having to dress in male formal wear when i really wanted to wear a dress, but now i just hate all of it! so i know how you feel about the stupid boy/girl easter pictures.
