This Twitter post, and the replies, hit me hard this morning.

I have never seen this side of cis masculinity. (Affirmation and inclusion are not stereotypically offered by cis dudes to persons who look like me, no matter the topic.)
I am realizing that if a friend is someone who would be supportive and welcoming about something that's that deeply important to me, then I currently have zero cis dude friends among the people I hang out with.
Knowing why doesn’t make it sting less.

On the other hand, I do have friends, and it’s good to be reminded that I need to let them know how important they are to me. ♥
