Dear Cissexism,

You are terrible and you make the world more terrible.

Help?

I got this question as fanmail. Since I’m with a cis person, I can’t really help. Followers?

I have a question. When my (trans*) girlfriend is going through dysphoria, is it better for me to just silently be here, or try to pull her out of it and reassure her? I know this varies from person to person a lot, but right now I’m far away so I can’t just hold her…

    she doesn’t like talking about it? At all? Gah. It is maddening. I ask my girlfriend that she tell

    Ask her? For me, if you’re trying to be there for me and we’re talking online, being silent is not the thing to do....

    Fucking ask HER what will help. What helps one person might hurt another person.
