Sorry, this post is a bit of a confused mess. Also, English is not my native language.

I don't mean to be hurtful, just feel the need to share.

For context: I am a 34 yo MtF. I've been on HRT for 7 years.

I would love to feel a sense of belonging and sisterhood with other trans and enby people, but I cannot.

Maybe I've been unlucky. There is something in other trans girls that I find really hard to bear. Mostly the lesbian ones.

In many of them I see such a sense of entitlement and other things that I associate with straight men.

I can't really pinpoint why, so I usually blame it on my internalized transphobia and misandry. Could be that it's all self-hate projected.

Also, while I use "non-binary" to describe my gender identity, it has become so trendy that I'm kind of shy to use it.

And all these anime girls, cat ears, elf ears, trans flags everywhere, cringey names, videogames... I don't know.

So many people thinking that because they have just realized they're trans, their experience is magically equal with cis women's ones. To me, it doesn't work like that.

An ex-partner of mine once told me that I'm a TERF. I am not, but they had a point.

I don't want to get too deep into this. I am just curious about other trans people's feelings about this.

Do you feel a sense of kinship with other trans people? Do you sometimes feel alienated?

P.s. I do not mean to offend anyone. Just wanted to know if other trans people feel the same.
