Just curious as to how your experiences with other people have changed as your body has feminized?
My biggest fear in transition is reaching a point where I'm obviously not a cis male and whether that will cause people to reject me or be mean to me. I live in a blue-leaning purple US state, so most people are at least neutral (in public) to trans people but still I worry.
I'd love to have more platonically intimate, female-coded friendships with women. But do ciswomen really accept transwomen as one of their own or is there always gonna be a disconnect?
Losing male privilege/ "default" "neutral" embodiment in public also kind of scares me, just because I'm pretty sensitive person in general and I kind of like being able to exist in public under-the-radar but I know with visible boobs and other feminization that won't be possible.
