Stumbled across this while searching to see if Nuns on the Run was a trans target:
Becoming transgender to avoid becoming a nun
You read the title. I have some issues since childhood. Call it OCD or whatever. Basically, I was born female but transitioned because I thought God wanted me to become a Christian nun, and I didn’t want that. I had (and still have) thoughts about it. It’s quite disturbing. Gives me anxiety. Thing is I always get nervous about religion.
I had obsessions about it for a long time as a Catholic. I had issues about my gender and other things and I had this fear that taking vows would seal my fate as a female forever. Also, in my head I always saw religious sisters as submissive of some sort. Submissive, and therefore corresponding to the patriarchy of the olden days. I didn’t want to lose my freedoms.
I know it’s weird and you might all think I’m psychotic now. I no longer identify as male but the thoughts about it still happens. I fear this is God’s will for me to suffer like this. Just needed to vent it out.
off topic but bloody hell the /detrans Reddit is heartbreaking
