I am assuming many of us try to hide our bulge so as to not draw attention to ourselves when going en femme in public. I noticed at Pride that there is a diverse mix of how people express themselves. Some individuals go to great lengths to be “passing” while others share all of themselves both transformational and their biological attributes. If part of our movement is to be ourselves, is there more of a movement to truly be ourselves or with hate growing in our society, is it the opposite?
I don’t think “passing” is something that should hold us back from going out en femme. The “rules and standards” for femininity are arbitrary and pointless. I could care less about fitting into someone else’s idea of what a girl “should” like.
I also think genitalia is something many people are way too obsessed with, especially when it comes to, well, anything. Some girls have a penis. Whoooooooo cares. What someone does with it is up to them. Are they tucking? Are they using it during sexy time? Whoooooo cares. Genitalia is something we all have, and unfortunately this anatomic feature is something that will shape what we are “allowed” to do and wear for the rest of our lives. I can’t wear nail polish because I have a penis. I can’t wear leggings because I have a penis. I can’t sleep in a nightgown because I have a penis. Why? Because men have a penis. In some people’s minds, this is the one and only thing that determines every single thing I do with my body or what I wear.
Do I tuck? It depends on what I’m wearing. Most times I am wearing a smoothing gaff, especially when I am wearing a tight dress or modeling lingerie. Is there a shape that someone sees? Sure, maybe. Do I lose any sleep over it? No. I have a penis and sometimes its outline is visible. How someone else reacts to it is completely up to them. Is a penis going to draw attention? I have no idea. I’ve never been drawn to someone’s genitalia in public. I don’t think about it. It’s a personal matter. I am more aware that I am drawing attention because I am a t-girl that is over six feet tall and still wearing stilettos.
Sure, there is a movement to be ourselves. We all live it every single day. But it’s up to an individual to decide what that means. And hate will always exist. Fighting against it is something humanity has been doing since creation even if the battle feels like a lost cause. Love (eventually) wins.

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

Good question that was raised Hannah. Really depends on what I am wearing, where I am going, and who I will be with. If I am wearing a tight bodycon dress, you bet your garter belt folks will notice my bulge if I am not trying to conceal. To suggest that most individuals would not scan our bodies is like suggesting men and women never check each other out. Taking a quick notice of the human body is as natural as squirrels gathering nuts 🥜 for Winter. Women observe other women all the time. Men……we know the answer to this. So while we are being scanned, the groin (whether sexually motivated or not), will be noticed. Sit on a bench at the mall and take 10 minutes to people watch. The behavior is quite evident. Does this stop us from what we want to do, probably not.

Hannah , Your out look on this matter is well taken . Why in the heck should it matter if I wear a night gown to bed just because I have a penis . I’m so sick and tired of people who think they should be able to run this world just because they think they-have the perfect mindset . To me these people are like a box of nails without heads , live in your own boxed minded world . Let people live the way they want as long as they aren’t hurting others . If I wear panties how and why does that matter to you .

Its easier to hide certain anatomical features than others. This is one that I prefer to make disappear.
