On the one hand, I was afraid of being not gay enough to go to Pride (I was wrong and had a great time), and at the same time I was afraid that if I couldn't point to a trans individual and say "yes I am sexually attracted to this human", that I was also trans-phobic and therefore not allowed in safe spaces.
