I just provably passed for the first time since starting my transition. Got a match on Taimi and after an initial compliment (apparently I have a nice smile 🥹) I got a “you aren’t a woman?!?” “I am a woman, but I’m trans”. <unmatched>. I’m not a fan of the passing culture, but it still felt damn good.

      I mean this as a sincere compliment when I say I thought I was scrolling past a photo of Marilyn for a moment - or someone doing a fabulous impersonation.

      Either way you look amazing and like you’re living your best life - absolutely love that for you!

        That is Marilyn. I just got so damn euphoric about some hick dude failing to clock me that I had to make my first post here and didn’t think too hard about what pic I used.
