LGBTQIA+ on Yik Yak | Passing is such a weird concept. Like any trans place I ask says I look like a woman (I’m afab) but irl customers at work call me he even if I’m not binding, and I went to changing rooms and these ppl moved out of the way of the mens. Like idk if I pass!?

trans people are better at clocking trans people bc we all have brain worms. cis people tend to not notice the little things that we immediately notice as clocky. if you’re generally called he by randoms, you pass

If it’s any consolation, I’ve been told by multiple trans ppl that I don’t pass as female and I’m a cis woman. I think some people just get hyper focused on passing as a concept and end up enforcing gender norms inadvertently
