This song always reminds me of trans women.

I love my trans girlies, but this song has no association with trans women. A lot of autistic girls like myself struggle with femininity and self image, we can’t fit in with the social norms Surrounding feminine roles and expectations. Even though we don’t have gender dysphoria we feel like we’re not real women and seeing other girls get the role down makes autistic girls feel like we’re failing at being a woman, it’s belittling to get written off every time a woman says she struggles feeling like a woman and then getting the trans label slapped on us. I can totally see and appreciate trans women relating to issues that us autistic girls have but we still have different experiences, we’ll never know how trans women struggle with femininity , and honestly I’m jealous because trans women fit into the female role better than me and my autistic friends, they’re so pretty and seeing them express themselves and their femininity makes me want to be like them.
