I think trans people should get thrown transition showers like brides and pregnant people get. All your friends come over to celebrate this big moment in your life, gift you things to start living your true gender, and just have a big party. Can we make that a thing?
Think about what we naturally celebrate.
We celebrate challenges overcome. We celebrate the things that make us unique. We celebrate our achievements.
We don’t celebrate the things that come for free, or are easy. We don’t celebrate things we all have the same, because why would we?
You might not get a banner, a party, or a cookie for being a cis-hetero person, but you probably have other challenges or unique features that are worth celebrating. You don’t have to be included in everything to be included in anything.
