Valid in every way

Encouragement

Not sure who needs to hear this but it’s okay if your story doesn’t look like someone else’s. If you figured yourself out later in life, that doesn’t make you any less valid. So what if you didn’t fit the “classic signs” of being trans as a kid? Most people don’t.

Unlike Instagram’s edited, photoshopped perfection or Reddit’s endless moderation and gatekeeping, X constantly shoving politics down our throats while allowing gore videos to run freely. TikTok was raw. It was unfiltered and real. It gave us a place to find people like us disabled, marginalised, scared, or just lost. It wasn’t perfect,
