Coming from a transfem ehis early in their transition, have you seen any change in how you're treated?
Yes. Clothing, makeup and hair and so on make a huge difference in how people perceive me. I just wear it because I like it, but it has an impact.
However, what matters most is how I feel and how I express that. When I show weakness some people will immediately exploit that to deal with their own frustrations. Likewise, when I feel fine, people love to tune in on that and I have zero issues socially.
So it really comes down to mental health, and I'm self aware of how I'm presenting.
Yea, I wanna social transition too :3
Thank you for answering :3
