Ask Hannah!

I would like to meet another t-girl to be friends with. Where would be the best place to meet someone else who likes to crossdress?

Honestly? The internet.

It’s not like we all go out an congregate in specific places unless it’s a LGBTQ+ bar/nightclub, I suppose.

Some of us, including myself, are, well, visibly transgender. I don’t pass and I don’t believe in passing. I 10000000% expect someone to see me and realize that I was assigned male at birth. And I am 1000000000000% okay with that. It’s true, I was assigned male at birth.

In allllll the years I have been going out, I think it’s safe to say that I have seen about five girls in public that I was fairly sure they were transgender. They were doing, you know, normal things. One was drinking coffee at a café patio, another was at a dress shop… you know, everyday things.

I will never clock or out another transperson. I would never walk up to another t-girl and strike up a conversation with them BECAUSE of their gender identity. I would hate it if that happened to me. Yes, I am trans and I know I am trans and you know I am trans and I know you know I am trans and let’s just move on, lol.

Meeting another crossdresser is next to impossible. I am defining ‘crossdresser’ here as someone who presents as male but perhaps underdresses. It’s not like you are going to walk up to that guy in a suit and ask them if they crossdress. They are also likely not going to signal that they are a crossdresser.

I know we need friends. I need my t-girl friends. It’s why I started the MN T-Girls. We tend to be very private, discreet, and fiercely protective people. Many of us avoid being noticed in public.

Love, Hannah

Have a question for me?  Oh yes you do.  Ask me here!

  1. I will say this, here in the Twin Cities it used to be that there were certain nights at certain local clubs that there would be a larger group of trans gals. It was already slowing down well before covid. Now it is indeed rare to have much of a group anywhere. I attribute that to our growing acceptance in society and the fact that so many of us are willing and able to go out on our own to venues we choose when we choose to do so.

    If you are looking for friends, as opposed to friends with benefits, you might try the app MeetUp and search for trans or LGBT groups in your area. You can find groups there interested in card or board games, breweries, dinners, outdoor activities, just socializing, etc.
