Yes passing is not everything for some people but for some, its ALL that matters, and its the endgoal of transitioning. Some people just wanna stealth like me, hell if I passed 30% of the time, I would instantly change all my forms. Passing is the only thing that matters to some and it shouldnt be shunned or less vxild

    it’s true tho tbh. so many people envision passing as a nirvana where all their problems go away but often it isn’t like that. they bet so much of their mental state on reaching it and then they do and still feel horrible. it’s not that you’re wrong for wanting to pass or that passing wouldn’t help things it’s just not an instant happiness ticket.

    even if you do pass, there is always the risk that some random person despite not actually seeing you incorrectly just brainfarts and misgenders you (i’ve literally done this myself to people i didn’t think at all were trans and who were not ambiguous in appearance) and then wipes out years of fragile progress.

    like i’m horribly tall and whenever i see someone like 175 even complain about anything i want to rage and say how can you be mad about anything when you’re a reasonable female height, and they would say how it’s still bad, it’s not everything, blablabla, and i can’t really say that they’re wrong
