I hate reading this edit because I came to say how absolutely gorgeous you look, and you do.

The hardest part may be releasing yourself from the need for validation from them. I’m a cis dude and haven’t experienced an ounce of the challenges you have, so my perspective may be off the mark but I hope you can see yourself as this stranger sees you and not as the people who can’t help but load you down with their baggage.

You. Are. Gorgeous. You deserve happiness as your gorgeous self.
