It should be understood that transgender people are normal people just like everyone else.

We’re not out to “trick” men, why would we want to be with someone we have to lie to and would hate us for the truth.

We aren’t going to harm your children. Knowing of our existence isn’t going to confuse your children or make them want to be trans. We don’t even want to be trans.

We aren’t sexual degenerates, growing up I’ve always just wanted to marry and have a family like any other girl.

We never go in the bathroom with the intent to harm women or girls. I shouldn’t have to explain this. On the other hand I have been a victim of rape.

We aren’t all atheists. Jesus is my rock, without him just being transgender would be unbearable.

We don’t always look like men. Just look at me. The ones that look like men are just the ones that you notice.

We aren’t perverts. I transitioned as a child. Children aren’t perverts. I wanted to be a girl way before I ever wanted to have sex.

There are some trans people who give us all a bad name. That is true for any group of people. But I can assure you that whatever misconceptions and negative stereotypes you’ve gained from listening to the types of transgender people who you find on Tumblr or whatever don’t apply to most of us. People can’t tell that I’m transgender and because of that I’m blessed enough to have a pretty normal life.

But regardless of what we look like we’re still just people with feelings and interests like any of you. We have families, feelings, things we love, things we hate, we cry and we laugh we have fun and we get bored just like anyone else.

I honestly don’t care what you think at the end of the day because you’re strangers on the internet, I just ask that you don’t hurt a person simply for being transgender. Thank you for reading.
