i was worried for a long time that i was only trans because i suffered abuse, especially because that's what so much of the online TERF rhetoric preaches. there's so much focus on gender dysphoria and having that dysphoria be a requirement to be trans, but think about it this way: finding who you are is so much more about gender euphoria. don't try......

it seems like the oldest a main character is in manga/hua is like... 32. give me some characters who are at least 40 or something, or visibly aged with eye bags and crow's feet :')

unfortunately, child-on-child SA is more common than people realize. usually the kids who do the SA-ing have been SA'd themselves and are acting it out, though that doesn't excuse what happened. i'm sorry that happened to you.

i feel like i'm going insane trying to remember it, i read it a long ass time ago.. MC goes to this sort of...military camp i think? it's an underground complex of sorts with different levels. love interest/seme is a crazy mad dog type with light hair, i think white or silver, and they meet via video call where LI's voice is distorted and only his hands are showing, and he and MC talk about rare books i think.
