sometimes i feel like my mannerisms are too girly/unpassable even though im a guy (a trans one or under the umbrella like the community im posting in), like i know it doesn’t mean anything, but someone told someone they wouldn’t pass as male if they used emojis like 😭 or ☺️ even though my bf uses them all the time. idk, i know im a guy and there’s nothing wrong with femininity, but still, this is a lil rant i guess
Speaking as a trans woman: men often are under an expectation to not display emotions. And trans people in general have our transness weaponized when we don’t partake in stupid gendered expectations. Had you been cis you would’ve been called a girl (or gay) over such things.
Back when I was lying about my gender constantly, my response was to imply that the accuser was too insecure in his manhood to be a little feminine.
