Why Passing Isn’t Important
I don't believe in 'passing'. I don't believe there is a standard, physical or otherwise, that a t-girl needs to achieve in order to look like or treated like a cis-woman. If there were standards, what would they be? Can a girl have a shoe size that disqualifies them from looking like a girl? Can … Continue reading Why Passing Isn’t Important

Victoria’s Secret Shame
This may come as a surprise to you, but I love to shop. Shopping can be intimidating for those in our community. It's impossible to predict what our experiences will be like. Will the cashier stare at me? Will the customers make whispered remarks to other shoppers? Will the sales clerk be helpful? Are those … Continue reading Victoria’s Secret Shame
