VelvetStorm ,

I've noticed a trend with trans women picking the stupidest names, and idk why. Like I kinda get Mildred because it's a classic name and has a cute nickname. So it stands to reason maybe she has a family member that was a huge influence on her so she wants to honor her with that name but why the fuck do people pick names like Lola.

Enough talk about trans rights, it's time to talk about trans wrongs /s

Frozengyro ,

But first, let's discuss the right and wrong trans wrongs.

The right trans wrongs: coming from a place of deep respect for you as a friend, Mildred is not the right name for you

The wrong trans wrongs: how many American conservatives ready trans individuals

If you want to get to Millie, start with Camilla. Not fucking Mildred.

I 100% support people to transition. I don't think people should get to pick their own names without any veto.

What if they changed their name to Adolf Hitler?

I say this as a trans woman. I will support, defend and love you no matter what sis.

But....

Fucking Mildred!?

As a trans woman, fuck yeah Mildred. Take that awful name and make it your own. Sure you could’ve been a Megan or a Maria or even a McKenzie, but anyone could pull those off. You chose Mildred to flex on us plebs

In contrary to my own comment, I entirely agree with this take.

captainlezbian ,

So many of us have a ridiculous name. I kept mine to my middle name, but so many don’t, so I can just fully embrace someone deciding she’s talking great grandma’s name and damn the consequences

Aremel ,

I gotta agree with the post. Millie would be a cute alternative Mildred. The name reminds me of mildew.
