do cis people not realize that trans people will often go through a period, before we come out to ourselves, where we lean into presenting as our assigned gender? is that not something cis people realize?

[biggest-gaudiest-poltergeist]

like we might try to perform as the gender we were assigned by using makeup/facial hair/gendered clothing or whatever to affirm that yes we are very much cisgender like we are expected to be, thank you very much. we might lean into gender stereotypes to convince ourselves & other people that we aren’t trans. and sometimes we present this way for years before transitioning. 

some of us use it to quiet our internal doubts about our identities. some of us use it to feel safe, to fit in, whatever. and some of us are very successful at passing as our assigned gender. and it still always sucks, bc being closeted is an innately terrible experience, no matter how “good” we are at the performance. 

which is why “i never would guessed” and “you don’t seem trans” are, in fact, shitty ways to react when someone tells you they’re thinking about transitioning.
