lets be real! passing is one of the most unfair societal obstacles we face! cis ppl put expectations on us to not just perform our gender, but to overperform it! if they used their standards on themselves, so many cis ppl wouldnt pass either. so take a deep breath and know youre doing just fine! and better than you think! its not like passing was ever important for self worth anyways – its just a bullshit game we play with cis.
I hope every trans person reads this and internalizes it. Dear GOD this is important!
Yeah tbh he was pretty chill in that book and the previous ones. I miss him when he was like that. Also yeah Brambleclaw was definitely an asshole to her a lot of times, and she wasn’t the nicest either. I just wish all three of them acted more mature about the situation and like,,actually got along and stayed close.
