It is totally okay to slip up and misgender yourself sometimes. It doesn’t make you any less trans. You were raised to think you were (male, female) and that you would never be anything other than that. Don’t beat yourself up over it if you misgender yourself!!
THIS IS SO IMPORTANT HOLY FUCK. Especially since people will try to convince you that slipping like that means you’re “not really” what you say you are.
Also, please don’t feel embarrassed if you still have your old name/body/presentation in your dreams. It means nothing, they’re just dreams and everyone knows dreams can be silly buggers! :3
also you will react to hearing your old name for a long time. which doesn’t excuse others from calling you by it; supporting trans people means helping us get used to being properly named and gendered. (trust me: we aren’t. we can all use the practice.)
Honestly, this is one of the most important things for trans kids to hear, PLEASE reblog it. Holy shit.
I can’t even tell you the number of horrible self-hating thoughts that will float into your mind if you’re transitioning but slip up on YOURSELF, and its absolutely reasonable when you’ve been taught to associate yourself with a gender and name you’re uncomfortable with for years, decades even.
