    i don’t know too many trans ppl in my city but the 1 that i’ve talked to said she gets misgendered and harassed occasionally. she lives in a diff neighborhood though and she said it was at night after like going to a club or party and stuff which i don’t really do

      Ok so while that may not be a situation you put yourself in, I think it’s noteworthy that with just one other known trans women, you already are hearing about misgendering that you don’t experience. That’s good! I think it would be worth learning more about what life is like for the other trans people around you. This can give you more of a frame of reference and it can help make you less uncertain about where you stand.

        tbh i think it’s only cause she doesn’t voice train i think she would mog me otherwise. i wish i could be closer with more trans ppl but im awkward around them too and haven’t been able to make friends

          I can’t say I’ve had the best luck in the local trans friend department either, it can really turn into a minefield. But you can still find stuff out before the mines go off!
