When I came out as trans, the people who “had concerns” didn’t ask how I was doing, or if I needed support. They wanted to know if I was going to take pills and have my bits chopped off. They’d’ve been fine with me changing my presentation, name, and pronouns. They feared my physical transition.

Here's the dirty little secret: cis people don't actually fear social transition. After all, people have been "eccentric" for ages. The TERFy wizard lady said it outright: change your name, use different pronouns, dress how you like, they don't care. But they FREAK OUT when you change your body.
