Hi folks! So, this is my second account after my 19 year old self got thrown back into the closet and abandoned my first account. I really think this time it's going to happen.
I'm in law school in the evening, debt free. In the morning, I work at a human rights agency that advocates for LGBTQ rights. In both areas everyone is super supportive. My aunt who tried to support me at 19... she supports me again and now we have a bigger family support group to convince my parents I'm not a total freak. I'm a freak, just not because I'm trans
I am kind of insecure about whether I'll pass when I'm transitioning at 25. Hormones should come in about a week or two and I'll be 26 in March. I'm 5'6.5, 135 lbs, East Asian.
I was male failed the other day without trying by a store owner. My friend and I walked into this store in St. Marks Pl. and the owner greeted us with "Hey ladies." I was wearing white patent Doc Martens, black skin tight jeans, cream oversized sweater, black trench coat just above the knee, giant gray scarf, black beanie, and white furry earmuffs. My friend is about 6'1'', cis woman.
I also managed to hook up with a lesbian friend earlier this month. I was wearing a wide brimmed hat, black oversized knit sweater, sheer tights, and chelsea boots.
Maybe this means I might pass?? I heard that East Asian MTFs tend to pass in non-asian circles, but other East Asians often instantly clock us. Kinda bummed out about that.
I'm also really regretful that I lost 7 years of my life by being thrown back into the closet... But hey, the second best time to plant a tree is today right?
Glad to be going through this with all of you!
