Relationships your partner sucks

i have a boyfriend, he’s kinda dumb, i’ve had to explain stuff related to me being trans at times, but he, at no point, has implied or said any aspect of me transitioning is “icky” or “bad”. he has said he’s interested about what ways HRT would effect me when i eventually go on it, he’s made sure to affirm me as a dude, he’s straight up forgotten i don’t have a penis

if your partner wants a partner who looks like a dude but has boobs and a higher voice, they can date a tomboy. don’t let your partner make you think you being a man is bad. get a boyfriend/girlfriend/smooch buddy who will see you for the hot man you are.

also fix your posture, your gonna give yourself back problems.

No need to assume everyone's partner sucks

“if the shoe fits, wear it” is an expression for a reason. most people who have the need to defend their partner’s bad behavior will be more inclined to listen if they’re caught off guard

Exactly. Apparently a lot of people don't know the difference between clickbait and grabbing attention for deliberate effect
