    My life experience as a 5’5" trans gal:

    As a repper: “why does my family have to be so short? This is awful. No one will take me seriously.”

    Post-transition: “I won the god damned lottery.”

          EDIT also “cuckstoel”

        I assure you I’ve had my own troubles and challenges in life. But at least in this area I got pretty lucky.

        Though even then, it’s complicated. Yes, I’m 5’5", but the only way a trans gal is 5’5" is if she comes from a family of short people. I’m the same height as my dad and brothers. I tower over my mother and sisters. They’re more like 5’1".

          fucking selective breeding.

          Me : Wavy hair, curly at the back. Wife : wavy hair.

          Daughter : Fucking afro, almost. Doesn’t help that her great-grandfather is “Italian”
