I don’t even have the courage to be openly bi, trans people are the bravest
It’s not really about bravery, more so survival. Like I would literally be dead if I didn’t transition, it’s just what I have to do to live and I have no other option.

“…when people questioned his gender, threatening to shoot anyone who suggested he was anything but a man.”
During his time in the army, he was in many ways the ideal of masculinity at the time. Drinking alcohol, sleeping with women, riding horses, and shooting very well.
He had it down pat, apparently
There was a forged birth certificate to prove his gender, as well as a pistol to threaten anyone who questioned his gender.
Hell yeah
Are you concealed carrying or just happy to see me?
In some states (like where I live), you don’t even need a permit, you can just do it
Where I live, I have to pass an interview with a local police officer
Been meaning to do it, since I already did it once for my regular permit
Somehow, I don’t know if “I don’t trust the local Chuds not so start shit with me” is gonna fly with the guy like “I want to do some target shooting” did
