It's hilarious to me that for MtFs, passing now means "passing as a trans woman." As in, other people realize you're trying to be a woman, and pronoun you accordingly.Back before the public became hugboxy, you couldn't have gotten away with that. It was pass as cis female or bust. Visibly trans women and cross-dressers (same thing to the public) got "sir."
>>42308619thats not what it means though
>>42308638Yes, it does.The natal males transitioning today are so masculine that they struggle even to be seen as trans.
>>42308619The public aren’t hugboxxy and there’s no such thing as pity-passing. I’m not fully socially transitioned but I’ve went through enough bullshit to know how the public is. Never been gendered female, called every name you can think of. If you’re gendered female it’s because you pass.
>>42308649sure anon you can tell every trans woman from every cis woman congratulations you're so snart
>>42308619pity passing is totally real i only get she her’d when in a group, alone it is always he him. schrodinger’s misgendering. an easy counter to this is to simply enbycope. can’t misgender me if i use any pronouns.
>>42308676>>42308702Now fight!
>>42308740Eh if >>42308702 means they’re only gendered female in a group of friends that’s a bit more normal. From my experience it’s just painfully clear they're not even thinking twice about how they’re gendering you and maybe don’t even realise you’re trans when you’re stood there in a full face of makeup and voicetrained while being he/him’d. My go-to example will just always be how doctors, therapists, psychs gender me, they start gendering female and begin slipping up more and more before giving up and going back to gendering you male.
>short people gender me male>tall people gender me female
>>42308649Is this some new kind of goalpost moving?Like, it's not enough that all trannies be clockable, now they have to not even look like troonjaks?So...wouldn't that satisfy chuds?
>>42309640The only acceptable way to be trans is not to transition
>>42308619I feel sorry for the wife. She didn't sign up for this
