Cause nobody ALWAYS feels like it’s working but we all do it anyway. in time, hopefully, those negative feelings are less frequent. To me, getting hot isn’t the goal, being myself is. So when I see a hot lady feel bad, that has nothing to do with my journey to be me. I can relate to them but I try not to see them as proof of concept. They don’t owe me happiness for me to have faith in myself.

A note: given that you have some truly gorgeous trans women reading this, I’m not sure what those hypothetical women are supposed to feel about your post. People feel what they feel. It’s hard enough to let yourself feel something without feeling responsible for how that makes someone else feel.
