I volunteered for a table my trans masc group had at the Queer Made Market today. I had so much fun and saw a lot of my friends. It was really nice. How has your weekend gone?
Yeah, it also helps that I have surrounded myself with supportive friends and partners. I have gotten a lot more careful with who I am willing to give my energy to as I have gotten older. I do not have time for people that will treat me poorly or that disregard my boundaries.
Yeah, I was pretty obsessed with passing for a bit and it was exhausting.
Yeah, I am glad that I am being seen as a man. It's nice. I did have to change the way I approach people because I am a very friendly person and sometimes people think I am flirting when I am just being friendly.
I stopped thinking about passing recently or trying to reach some magical this is what a man is kind of level of whatever it is that I am doing. So, it's weird in a good way. Like it feels good to be recognized as a man, but it also feels weird that I even care.
