Title: People see me?
Post by: Wild Flower on November 17, 2014, 07:41:00 AM
About 3 months ago, I manage to do something well and the guy next to me said ,"yay!". That was coming from a masculine as can be guy in the world. Irrelevant I know. But at that time i was more feminine... if not the most feminine being in the class. I had guys helping me left and right. No competition.

Okay... today a guy was telling me things negatively.. and then two guys came over to me all gentle and stuff with smiles. That same guy came to me like three times in a gentler way asking if I needed help. **I was in the middle of checking the oil in a vehicle work related**

I was thinking about this but they are either treating me like a female or like some cute puppy.  Weird.  But the thing is.... it hasnt happen since then...  its like my feminine soul has been more open... since i was losing my mind with repression twi weekends ago.

I dont get guys.

Wait so what you're saying is that they would all kind of baby you & they've stopped? Were you new to the job? Or maybe they can just overall tell that you're the girliest guy on the job. Guys may be dumb, but they can differentiate between a visibly masculine person & a frail one hahah

Kind of new. Its just a once a week thing.. so they.know me a.bit. this is my second time doing it. but men become babyish only once they know me.  If they see that side.of me. They didnt stop at the same time but just came to ask me.

Im come.across IN MY OPINION as feminine and frail or just very nice. No one has.seen me angry or ever using curse words. I think.the best example is Harry Potter meets Snow White.

LOL... HRT has been a real mind bender for me.. I am like turning so girly even after less than a year on HRT.  I notice guys notice me too.. I get smiles and it freaks me out.. I think they read me female from a short distance.
The strangest thing is guys seem so guy like now.. I sense their presence and I find myself thinking how good looking some are.
I have changed so much and myself as totally female that I like guys now.
But no relationships until after SRS.
Another trans girl told me this could happen.. and she was right..
Enjoy the ride.. I am loving it.. most the time..
Carrie :)

And this.

As much as we hate steroetypes or say we do. I loathe them but... They generally hold more true than anything else.

No we aren't gonna' ever understand guys. Whether you are seen as an effeminate guy or girl. Sometimes there will be guys there to help and or potect from bullies. I know because I had my own "protectors" in school. They weren't gay. They weren't attracted to transgirls as far as I know, but they were really good guys. I will go as far as to say they were real man even at 16 and 17. There were three, one even bi, that seemed to keep me from getting into trouble. But a little skinny transexual looking guy in school that played guitar. I could have been an easy target. But...

As for the Bi guy. MMM HMM. You guessed it, we did date for a while after highschool before I went west. Bi or not he was a real man in what a man should be.

But don't ever try to understand guys. They are guys, we are women and we think totally different regardless of the junk. It is a mental thing.

This phenomenon always confused me... After I started HRT, there was a time when I thought I may be straight too. Speaking to my councilor about it, he tends to observe a 'pendulum' effect for those under HRT, but notes that orientation usually returns to what it was.

In my case, I've always been attracted to women. That hasn't really changed at all, although the odd guy can also catch my eye, which is new, although not a big change.

Anyway, just be prepared for further change yet :).

I get it now.

Men may not be physically attracted to me. Although they maybe turn on AFTER knowing me.

A friend a long time ago told said this... "Hes the only person who makes me feel the way my girlfriend feels".
He meant it like I made him feel normal.

I think after a guys knows me... I make him feel like a man. I make him feel like hes special. I never judge someone and thats why guys like me... women dont have this same ego drive. But a guy does...

Im not a flamer... but im just that way.  I think its whatever Marilyn Monroe has... lol.

Sadly people see me as male... but then in public I still dress that way... because I have not come out (see my intro), despite some questioning looks or comments... basically my boobs must be a give away???? My grandkids notice all the time  :o but love it  >:-)

Love Katy

Are you feminine in personality? 

People see me as male but people who know me see me as feminine. Not exactly woman. But to call me a dude is like calling the sky green.
