I'm Proud to Be a Tranny


I used to not like the word pride because I was raised in a Christian family. Christians think that any feelings of self-love are dangerous, probly because the Bible is just a control mechanism, but I will delve into this more latter. What I want to talk about is real pride. I was a nerd and looked it up on dictionary.com:
–noun
1.
a high or inordinate opinion of one's own dignity, importance, merit, or superiority, whether as cherished in the mind or as displayed in bearing, conduct, etc.
2.
the state or feeling of being proud.
3.
a becoming or dignified sense of what is due to oneself or one's position or character; self-respect; self-esteem.
4.
pleasure or satisfaction taken in something done by or belonging to oneself or believed to reflect credit upon oneself: civic pride.
5.
something that causes a person or persons to be proud: His art collection was the pride of the family.
6.
the best of a group, class, society, etc.: This bull is the pride of the herd.
7.
the most flourishing state or period: in the pride of adulthood.
8.
mettle in a horse.
9.
Literary . splendor, magnificence, or pomp.
10.
a group of lions.
11.
sexual desire, esp. in a female animal.
12.
ornament or adornment.

None of that sounds dangerous to my body or anyone elses!
I used to feel "not good enough" and that I could not ever be accepted as a "real" male. I have realized that everyone feels this way, yes, everyone! Every person feels afraid of not "passing" as whatever they wish they were: People put on make up, dye their hair, pierce body parts, tattoo their skin, wear leather, buy fancy cars, go to the gym, get boob-jobs, nose-jobs, lypo suction, gastric bypass surgery, penis extensions, hair extensions, hair growth surgery, and the list goes on and on of the things that all humans do to "pass" as sexy or normal or beautiful. And if they don't pass as this idea of what is acceptable they hate themself or feel "not good enough".

I feel like I couldn't be any hotter because I am not comparing myself to an image of some guy I want to be, I am who I want to be and I have pride in myself. I might sound cocky but really it just means I do not feel any better or worse than any other animal/person on this planet.
