You’ve shown me that being a man is the matter of how you feel INSIDE

I have been posting all these amazing emails I have been getting lately on my tumblr page because for some reason that is a haven for trans hatred. Strange how communities eat their own. I wish they would understand that we all have different ways of looking at things and doing things. We are individuals first. There are many who just want to see me fail for whatever reason or agenda they have. It is just human nature I think. I have thought of just deleting my tumblr account but then why? I think it is better to fight the hate with love. So now I am posting the many positive letters I receive everyday from all over the world. Love Love Love!!

WOOF!

Hi Buck! I’m a transgender from Russia. Actually I’m not a transman I’ve got a female body but I feel like a man. Like a real man. And you know why? Because of YOU! When I learned about you I was dramatically impressed. YOU have changed my whole life! Earlier I used to be upset about my body I felt I can’t be a real man… And only when I’ve learned about you did I realize that it’s not the matter of having a cock. You’ve shown me that being a man is the matter of how you feel INSIDE. I would feel pretty uneasy wearing male clothes and acting like man because I thought everybody looked at me. And now it’s different. Now I don’t feel awkward wearing men’s clothes. Why? Damn because I AM a man and I know that! And now my life is completely different. After having learned you I started LOVING myself and my body! I don’t give a damn about the others think about me. I feel so confident and strong now. I am HAPPY. And that’s because of you being my pattern. THANK YOU.
Sincerely yours

Thanks so much for the email. I am so proud of you that you have taken control of your life. You will be amazed at how empowering yourself like that will change everything. It is not an easy thing to do but when you make up your mind to stop feeling like a victim and realize that you make life what it is then everything changes. I realize that not everyone is always in a great position to do things but by changing your mental attitude first, everything comes after.
Also thank you for letting my work inspire you that means tons to me.

Good luck on your journey my friend.

WOOF!!
