I think your point is valid. But I just want to say every transfem I know (me included) is able to code switch. Often we dress in "Boy mode" and assume that role out of safety for many years after coming out. And while it does get harder and harder, It is an option for a while, if a emotionally bad one.

This. There’s pain in all of these experiences but much of the transphobia towards us is that we’re these poor innocent confused little girls that can’t make our own decisions but TW are treated like this violent threat for just existing

I saw this yesterday and I’m still thinking about this. I am in the same situation as you, my parents don’t know even though I’m on t and my voice sounds different. Idk if I’ll tell my mom this year. It is lucky for me to be able to get into girlmode and be able to pass as a woman in front of my relatives. It’s an interesting spot to be in, I also… don’t necessarily feel invisible because I’m around many trans people outside of the online spaces and I feel welcomed and affirmed.

hello :
The difference the flavor of Christianity makes has surprised me a ton. I come from an "everything is noticed, questioned, and controlled" conservative Evangelical family. I couldn't even get through last Thanksgiving in loose-fitted, nice women's clothes without one family member staging an intervention. My mom polices hair and makeup, even though years ago I expressed pain at her criticism and stopped sending her pictures of me. I don't visit family now

I understand not coming out to family, I’m actually in the process of wanting to tell mine because I’m undeniably medically transitioning but also it just feels.. so personal to talk about? I’m not emotionally close with my family.. like I never came out as queer to them when I was a teen, it’s just something that WAS. I never talked about it and just started bringing my partners around with no questions asked but being trans is uncharted territory for sure and makes me nervous.

As a trans girl I really really appreciate the support. I put off telling my catholic parents, but when I came home for Christmas with boobs it became impossible to ignore. And since then there have been a lot of struggles, and I kind of wish I could step back into that particular closet.

It IS more difficult for the girls! I see it as our (trans masculine ppl) responsibility to support them in the moments where we can disappear, and they can’t. Let’s use our new definition of masculinity to defend women first ❤️

I 100% agree that invisibility is privilege. Yes it brings its own pain but it’s less danger and that is privilege. Sometimes kids still ask me if I’m a boy or girl or whatever and folks can seem kinda confused looking at me but I can go in women’s spaces without issue but I also think men especially blue collar men recognize that in me and I am safe around conservative folks who just genuinely like me somehow too. It’s nothing compared to what trans women deal with

wouldn't it be easier the other way around? when testosterone kicks in there isn't much you can do to cover it

There are pros and cons to invisibility. The biggest pro right now is safety while the biggest con is the lack of support. That said, in this climate, it is definitely a privilege to be invisible. Trans women and trans fem folx are taking the brunt of the hatred and violence and I absolutely hate that for them.

AAAAAA :
i agree that transwomen tend to have much rougher coming out journeys, however, i am also transmasc and vaguely androgynous (i’d say what strangers assume is v much 50/50)– which is why no matter WHAT bathroom i go into, in public, i almost always get yelled at etc either way. so in short: No Way do i agree being transmasc = smth that flies under the radar. i think ur pov is extremely influenced by living in MA, usa.

I really feel like coming out will eventually just stop being a thing if culture goes the way it’s going

Ur mom :
Agree 100%! I’ve gotten into fights on a few occasions over this, I had a fellow transmasc friend that truly believed trans women were more privileged or something?? We don’t talk anymore for a lot of reasons, but yeah..

Oh it’s 100% harder for trans women. it really can’t be disputed. Doesn’t mean that it’s not hard for transmasc ppl
