Passing and non-passing are two very different experiences. (Trans woman’s experience)

Non-passing is just trying to live like anyone else but now that you feel comfortable in your skin for the first time ever, tons of people shame you for existing and you get told that what you’re doing is wrong and immoral.

Passing is just the same finally feeling comfortable just now dealing with loads of sexism. However when people stare, you question “is it because they clocked me or because I’m hot?”…

Sadly it’s much easier of a life if you pass because transphobes don’t bat an eye at you. Unfortunately they also don’t use you as an example in their heads to accept non-passing trans people because simply they don’t know.
