Open question for everyone of any gender because I genuinely want to hear your experiences. I'm a 6'2" black dude, I'm pretty quiet and consider myself to be a gentle soul but I swear no matter what I do I am ALWAYS treated like a potential threat. People are scared of me and there have been times when other men try to pick fights with me. They think that because I am a man and I am of this stature that makes it okay to get aggressive with me. This hurts me because I don't like senseless violence. I don't like my life as a male, I don't like looking at myself as a male. The more people tell you something, the more you believe it and I believe I am a freak. For those of you who have transitioned, have you noticed a change in how you are treated in terms of gender? Is it better or worse than before? I know this is a case of "the grass is greener on the other side" but I wish I was just born female. I hate everything about being a man, both socially and physically. But I do not wish to be a tall woman with mannish features.
>>43613050Some trannies are so fucking tall and eternally masculine that nothing really changes for them.If anything, detecting a tranny usually means, "oh shit, this is one of those mentally ill males who might make a big fucking issue if I misgender or not treat with their preferred sexism"
I just wrote this in another thread. I’m kinda short and white but have linebacker shoulders and a lantern jaw:>One thing that sucks about being a very clocky and obvious hon (in developed countries where outright violence is very rare) is when even other women and very pretty passing trans still treat you like a man. Not like they say or do anything outright but you can just sense them subconsciously tense up and close ranks like if a dude in a leather jacket walked in the room. The most rewarding moments from transition have been when another woman or trans saw and recognized my femininity with a light touch on the arm or a word like unironically “hey honey”I usually manmode unless I go to specific nightclubs or whatever where queer stuff is welcome. If I honmode out in normal society I sometimes get the “youre so brave!” Liberal white ladies which it’s own kind of uncomfortable
>>43613080>>43613126Yeah I'm not gonna lie this is why I just know that transitioning won't do shit for me, would just potentially create more problems for me lmao. I will always feel like a man inside.
>>43613050MtF, people mostly just treat me the same, and i get sirred by most people even after 8 years of HRT. pretty sure people think im some hipster looking dude with long hair. women seem fearful of me. men generally treat me the way they would treat another man. when i say my name i get weird looks. im 5'11 and feel giant, sorry
>>43613199Yeah bro it is what it is Still glad I did it cause feelsgoodman but this is one of those things where it’s like god/ the universe/ your higher self is winking at youMan wants what he fundamentally cannot have, and the only way out is to remember that this lifetime is like our soul playing a video game
>>43613050it made me kek that buttercup was a jacked black dude
Bump for interest
>>43613050Tbh im a small girl hight wise and I get scared on the rare times I see tall black guys I really dont like them innately sorry
>>43614210are you cis or trans? If you are a petite girl people will usually try to protect you like you're a precious baby bird or something. We will never truly be equals. Shit's unfair.
