A reader writes: "I am a blind trans guy and want to know about the things I need to know that I can't just observe men doing. I heard that there's a time to hug someone and a time not to, and that these things are different for men. Can you explain this?

"Also, how will I know when I need to start using the men's room instead of the women's? I won't see the disgusted looks I'd get! Currently, I still look female and use the women's room. Are there any other blind trans guys out there, and what are their experiences?"
