Today, I had to google the definition of transsexual just to know what the hell my friends were talking about. I need to read a book. FML
Collection
Halloween
A failed costume, stolen candy and a very real scare: Halloween, the one night when fear is allowed.
Same thing different taste
Dyslexics untie!
Today, after finding out from my psychologist that I have a disability in reading comprehension, I tried to Google how to improve my reading skills. I couldn't understand what any of the articles were saying. FML
Today, I had to use a dictionary before I realized I was being flirted with. FML
Stumped
Today, a four-year-old said a word that I didn't know the meaning of. I had to look up the definition. FML
Trans women are women
Today, I'm dating a trans girl, who is also my best friend. She confessed to me long ago that she was born male, and that wasn't a big deal to me. The problem is that my family is constantly harassing her, because I should have been "with a real girl instead of a monster with severed genitals." FML
Acceptance
Today, I'm a closeted trans man, and I feel terrible every time my family calls me "she" or "girl". Help me, I don't know how to come out. FML
Today, I was staying over at a friend's house for the weekend while the rest of my family goes to Cuba. Her neighbor started hitting on me. As it turns out, "he" was actually born as a "she", and now I'm apparently a transphobic bitch for not being interested. Two more days to go. FML
Today, I finally convinced my mom to read Fight Club. As English isn't her first language, she occasionally asked me to translate some of the words. Her latest question: "What's a dildo?" FML
Cultural appropriation
Today, I had to explain to my mom what an 'LGBT ally' is and that it is entirely possible for a straight cis girl to support the LGBT movement. She thought I was a lesbian because I have rainbow colored and LGBT memorabilia. FML
Not a good sign
Today, I went to see my gynecologist. She was writing my symptoms up in my chart on her computer. After a little while, I noticed that she had a confused look on her face and was reading something instead. When I took a peek at the computer screen, I saw that she was Googling my symptoms. FML
So… about that…
Today, the moment I had been fearing for the past few days arrived: my mom asked me if I knew what a groyper was. I don't know what's worse, that I know what they are, or that trying explain the concept is so convoluted, she now thinks I'm making shit up. FML

um. No that's 'sweet transvestite ... from Transylvania' A transsexual wants to have a physical change, not just wear the clothes.

Yeah..... You need to work on that.

Google is more efficient. Anything irrelevant can be ignored.

If you'd have just watched Rocky Horror Picture Show this would never have happened!

Sweet Transvestite is in that movie not sweet transsexual. But still, it would've given OP a clue.

"Don't judge a book by it's coverrrrrr... " (; oh rocky horror is my life.

can't be a transvestite and transsexual at once, it's just funny alliteration.

There are a lot of things that people never discover, and it is apparently embarrassing is they don't know it at an older age. Be happy that you learned it now rather than later.

At least, you educated yourself on the topic. Ignorance is only shameful when you do nothing about it.

I don't see anything shameful about not knowing what a transsexual is.

Knowledge is power. The only stupid question is the question that goes unasked.

No such things as stupid questions, just stupid people.

At least you educated yourself instead of pretending to know what it means.
