u ever start reading a book and it feels like someone peeled open ur brain and put all ur own thoughts and feelings onto the paper? yeah.

so far the descriptions of gender dysphoria are *not* easy to read, but the author states very plainly that this book doesn’t hold back any. and holy shit. i’ve read a lot about the trans experience over the years but nothing hits home quite so much as this, for me.
