Why is r/askwomen governed like North Korea?

Thanks, I appreciate it, I do.

You really do never know the full story. And sometimes, I ask myself, why bother transitioning? But I definitely have a choice. My rationalization is that either way, i'll be miserable. But in my own home, i'm a man and always have been. I'm so happy and content when it's just myself and my family. The second I have to face society, i'm miserable and feel like a burden to the world.

I like the Skyrim reference, definitely accurate. I cut my hair maybe 6 years ago and wear male clothing, which I kinda always have done anyway. I don't have any concrete plans to transition medically but I know who I want my top surgeon to be, so I have one thing figured out. I've seen maybe 5 gender therapists. They all cost $200+ and are far from my home. There just aren't enough resources, trust me lol.

Thankfully my mom said she would do anything to get me surgery, like, pay for it herself. It's just up to me but i've never had surgery, so i'm honestly scared of going under, which is holding me back. And everything is kind of on pause due to covid, im in a hot spot in Florida lol
