this is a recent note on a reblog of one of my image posts.
gosh, this is upsetting.
i know it’s tumblr and most people don’t care; they just reblog and assign their own realities to my images. they couldn’t care less about the fact that i took time to write down my feelings about the images i’m posting, about the fact that i’m an actual person who is very fragile and sensitive.
i am no role model for “third gender sissies.” i’m not a “third gender” — i’m a woman like any other.
i absolutely detest the word “sissy.” i detest the word “gurl.” i detest all of the connotations that come with those terms and, by extension, the reduction of my life to a sexual fantasy based on humiliation and shame.
i am not a “sissy.” i’m feminine, delicate, but i’m resilient. all i want is to be ok with myself, to feel like my life is my own, to walk down the street with confidence. and i want nothing to do with such degradation.
the “inspiration” is entirely of your own making. i assume you’re a human being with thoughts and feelings and fears just like me. but we are not the same.
