as a binary and passing trans man that dresses sterotypically masc (I work in agriculture), I usually feel unwelcome in queer and trans spaces and it makes me very sad. I’m GAY!!! And TRANS! Just because I like dressing like this doesn’t mean im not trans

genuinely so disheartening to get glared at whenever I go to a trans event just because of the way I look. I’m still trans, even if im stealth even if I like dressing in a very masculine and binary way. I fought hard to get to this point and I feel like once I started passing all the time other trans people (both online and irl) started to dislike me, even people I’d known for years

Pretransition trans girls and even semi passing trans men on their way to be treated like shit in queer spaces together 🔥🔥🔥

i’m a passing straight trans man. the oh-so-accepting queers that freak out whenever a pre-transition/non-passing trans girl or a passing trans man enters queer spaces need to get their heads out of their asses.

my trans guy self and my trans girlfriend on our way to be mistaken for a straight couple at the queer event even though we’re both trans and bi 😭

I am openly gay and have a septum piercing (not that that should matter) but even in regular queer spaces I still get weird looks it makes me so so sad
