Looked At? The Flip-Side of Yesterday
Posted August 20, 2008

Yesterday I wrote about my own "lookism" in relation to other women of a transsexual history. And to more or less even the balance and see that "passing" isn't the absolute greatest thing in the world, not always; I thought that today, perhaps, I'd present another side of passing. Personal experience again. This one not quite so enjoyable as simply walking through the world being seen for who ya are.

Sometimes being able to do that has a downside, and often a very large one. Asx with yesterday's essay I would imagine that at least in some of the instances I'll write about over time, cissexual women experience the exact same things. In this instance, perhaps only women with transsexual histories experience the event.
