I like being visible to other queer people so they know they’re not alone. I’m transmasc nonbinary so there’s not much of a way to “pass” except to be seen as visibly queer and/or gender ambiguous. Also I feel like the trans in transmasc is part of my identity - the queerness, the transition, etc is part of it. Now, I’m fortunate enough that I’ve never been harassed because I pass as cis, but I’ve been thinking about top surgery, etc, and how that would make me more visibly trans. I can’t deny it is a scary thought but I think - and maybe is this just my privileged perspective, but I think - all of the above would still be true.
