So I'm three and a half months into HRT. I'm still not full time and am not fully presenting as female yet, but I've still been gendered female a few times by strangers even in my "guy mode". I've been getting some noticeable reactions from family members and friends. The first time I noticed it was when my mom's ex-boyfriend was at the house, and when I came to greet him he started looking me up and down and said "Hey <insert my birth name here>, you look good." At Thanksgiving I was chatting with my aunt's boyfriend, and later on in the evening he came behind me and started rubbing my shoulders. Besides those two notable instances, I just feel like people (men, specifically) are looking at me..."differently". I can't quite put my finger on how to describe it, but either way, I'm happy about it ^^ Since even though I know I'm not 100% male-fail passable just yet, people are clearly noticing *something*. My guess is it's the pheromones o:
