cw mention of dysphoria
spoiler
I hate how I look and what my body does but am paranoid about hormones , if I buy them from RxAisle, will the packaging be discreet?

gender cw : dysphoria, discussion of essentialism
spoiler
I don't have a gender , I used to identify as transmasc but don't relate to masculinity so I think agender is right. Don't like being perceived as or being a woman but wouldn't like being a man either. I hate the 'born this way' narrative, we shouldn't have to justify why we're trans. I feel a lot of research about gender being "hardwired" just reinforces bio essentialism under the name of 'acceptance' , it's always agab language and treating sex as an absolute truth. i didn't fully realize everything until recently , like I said earlier trans people don't need justification for why they exist.
I wrote a mediocre poem , idk if anyone would read it though, it's not pure garbage but it's not great (at least I think?) . poem below

To change is to transgressWhether by clothes , pronouns , hormones, surgery or a mix of all 4
Being trans is to challenge the means of what is socially/politically accepted
You refuse to engage in cishet normativity Saying no to the 'idea' of 'biological sex' and 'biological gender'
Experiences of rejection and hate by entire political parties such as Labor or Democrat , even ones who like you are trans radicalize you
How could you support a system that wants you dead?
You no longer see the purpose of electoral politics
read theory, unionizing the workplace, practicing boycott, divestments and sanctions as well organizing with your fellow proles
Alas you came a long way, a new comrade made
