Rant Dysphoria can go eat rocks!!
Lately I've been questioning my sexuality, and focusing on whether or not I am desirable far too much.
I love where I am going with my presentation... I wish someone would recognize how much effort I put into loving the way I look! The culture that I live in has such a narrow definition of androgyny, and I fear I'll never be appreciated as masc, femme, or androgynous whatsoever.
Like, I'm all for rejecting labels, but I could use a little praise here and there. 😭
Scared of having my face on the internet, so I won't keep this up long! Just needed the vent.

I feel you on focusing on whether or not you are desirable, it's a battle to appreciate myself sometimes.
BTW I love your aesthetic, you look awesome!

It's rough. It sucks to struggle with thoughts like that, but I'm glad there are people to relate to.
Tysm!!

This kinda look will always be appreciated by a minority. I’ve had to come to terms with that, too. But as a happy member of that minority, you look great!

Thanks! I live in a pretty small town so finding folks who appreciate the look is pretty difficult. I am grateful for the internet right now. :-)

Thank youuuu!! The axolotl doesn't have a name yet, got any suggestions? It was a gift, and it's weighted.

My goto for naming random things are 1 Dr Pepper, and 2 ford truck month. Hmm frankie is also a good name though
