The New you know you pass when

[Alainaluvsu]

Even when men know that I'm trans they've never been creepy with me (except 2 times). But it's still a little intimidating when you say hi to a tall thug looking guy, trying to be nice because you're walking by, and he says "Hey beyyyybeh what's yo name."

Groups of men bother me. They're usually taller than me. I'm a hair under 5' 7". They make me a little nervous. I guess it's the intimidation factor.

I know... I'm 5'3". It's pretty nerve wracking having somebody twice your size hitting on you. But at the same time it's reaffirming so... it's mixed.

I actually wish I was shorter. I know I'm not all that tall. I'm in between the average height of white men and women in the US. I identify more with shorter women. I would prefer to date men taller than me. So on the bright side at least I'm not 6'3" or something.

I love being tall. I have guys tell at me ," hey baby! What's yo name?"
Cat calls can be so much fun. Even more so when your a tall baby giraffe. And of course I'm always super nice to them all

Omg xD Tristan, you're too fun.

When you get called "ma'am" and "lady" while dressed in sweats and without a padded bra.

Hells yea, I was sporting my platforms in Seattle and got a few cat calls. Over 6 feet? F-yea, that's modelling time.

You better werk!

I'm sorry if I offended any of you taller ladies. I never meant there was anything wrong with being tall.

Girl your fine you didn't offend anyone. I love that you speak your mind and voice your concerns. You don't need to apologize for anything. Everyone has some good stories about passing. I just love it!
I just love being tall. It's cool being tall. I'm actually going to try and do that modeling thing. Someone talked me into trying it this fall

[Tristan]

Well thank you

[Darkie]

Oh Mia, I can just imagine your boyfriend laughing.  That sounds hilarious and yet really kinda unsettling at the same time.  I can understand why that would be kinda gross.

When a cop hands you your license back and says "I had no idea you were a man... I was about to flirt with you..."

and still gives you his phone number ....

and a guy witnessing you getting your ass beat after having a 3 hours scream fit with your roommate sticks around on your porch to holla at ya. Saying "You too pretty to be getting beat up". And when telling him you're trans, he just doesn't believe it.

Means you not only pass, but are perceived as quite beautiful too. Nice! ^_^

About 10 years ago, at the rink. I am a figure skater and was changing from my street clothes to my skating clothes, which means down to bra and panties. The room was full of young girls (and their mothers), teenage girls talking over me, girls and women coming and going, all in various stages of undress, and nobody paying any attention to me or even noticing me. I remembered a "passing" thread on a TS forum and started to chuckle. I guess I have been on this side of the fence that I don't even notice.

When you are sunbathing in the park wearing your new bikini, and you get hit on 5 times in the span of an hour. That is a really good indication that you pass.

[Kitteh Engimeer]

When you have to convince a bartender that you are who you are in your ID rather than some chump who got one in a back alley.

[V M]

Some creepy guy gets angry with you and starts calling you every nasty name in the book regarding females and their bits... Geez, all I did was tell him to pay better attention because he almost hit me with his car while I was riding to the store last night

*Sigh* Road rage
