    Honestly, its not that the town I live in is conservative. It’s just that the part of it I live in is. Which is no big deal for me because I can just hang out in different parts of town. But my kids go to school here. They’re trapped. Also Norway is generally quite progressive, but they have a weird hang up when it comes to trans folk specifically.

    My stupid ass bought a flat here, so it’s going to be a few years before I can afford to move.

        Yeah, it sucks. But if I’d realised earlier, I wouldn’t have my kids. So it sucks, but also not as much as it could.

          Lesson learned, never move to the conservative part of town because there’s a good chance you’re much gayer than you think. <3
