IME trans people come up with a lot of ways to call each other what amounts to “half-cis” or “basically cis.”
I remember when the thing used to be saying ~passing~ trans people have “conditional cis privilege.”
So many holes in it you don’t even know where to poke the stick tbh

"wow so you are basically a real™ girl" girl you just admitted defeat in every way possible and cant survive fresh air or sunlight
If this is in reference to "Everyone passes til they just don't," it was a way of saying that there is a point where any of us can get clocked, in part because clocking can happen randomly and arbitrarily.
In my example, rejecting a man was grounds for clocking.
I don't need to be mind bogglingly gorgeous hyperfemme. I transitioned so I could keep being myself, but even more so as a girl
Personally I have no idea what you think so I wouldn't just assume that you have that expectation
It's just that with a mask in public, even after top surg, my main male signifier is hidden and people assume I'm a teen girl. Rather than get angry, I stopped caring.
I struggle with this as a non-binary person because there’s really no way to pass. There’s androgyny but that’s not really what a lot of us are going for.
Fuck off
But it doesn’t begin and end with our difference from cis women, either. I wish people would just start getting this.
as a tmasc lesbian, simply not IDENTIFYING as a girl is enough to get you labelled with Male Privilege (+ associated bad intent)
I must ask... why do you allow the most radical of your number to represent you?
Who is "the most radical of your number"?
Avi Silverberg? That one Canadian schoolteacher with the big boobies?
Now, you can protest that they weren't transgender, but here's the rub: according to radical ideology, anyone who says that he or she is transgender, automatically must be. Welcome to a world without limits.
The "rule" (if there is one) is that we tend to believe people unless there is a reason to believe they are being insincere.
This isn't a difficult concept unless you are pretending to misunderstand - which you are.
Oh ffs.
🙃
These are "the most radical" - "among us"?
Okay dude.
I made a post about this recently on X, the Everything App.
