a trans woman isn’t a real woman like an olympian isn’t an athlete
like the president isn’t a politician, like a champion’s not a contender
because her gender wasn’t handed to her on a plate
she couldn’t wear it on her sleeve, femininity for all to see
she had to lock it away, hidden, kindled low
she had to earn what you were given
her daddy never called her princess, she didn’t get a bra at 13
she never got an easter dress, she never got a barbie
because she had to work, and scrape, and grovel just to be seen
because she never gets to take her womanhood for granted
because no matter how much, how often, how far she goes
she knows that a trans woman’s work is never. fucking. done.
a trans woman isn’t a real woman?
no, she’s twice the woman you are.
Just a reminder that right at this moment, twerfs are passing this around with horrifically misogynistic commentary. This is our fucking day. Please reblog this, either with positive comments, or at least with no comments. Help me drown out the woman-hating on my activity page.
