i hate the emphasis on beauty in trans narratives. i hate that trans people are told not to transition because it'd make us ugly. i hate that transition timelines are only celebrated when the end result is some magical transformation towards conventional beauty standards

transition is not lifesaving because it makes us beautiful. we do not NEED to be beautiful. transition is lifesaving period.

#like . maybe you transition and you look not much different #or maybe you look 'worse'#it doesnt fucking matter #you dont owe anyone a thing #that includes yourself #this goes for all trans ppl btw #transfemmes who are told theyd make 'ugly women'#transmascs who are told not to betray their ~beautiful pure femininity~#nonbinary people whos ideal selves cant fit into the conventional standards at all #and everyone in between and everyone i forgot #we. dont. owe. anyone. anything.#amber actually saying stuff
