  • Could be they’ve always treated you differently than they treat guys. Even before I realized I was trans, I realized the way my best friend treated me was clearly different than he treated pretty much all other guy friends. I don’t think he exactly treated me as he would if he thought of me as a girl, but like I’m not a girl either and there’s extra social pressures for het people to not be gay and such.

      Could be they’ve always treated you differently than they treat guys.

      Definitely not this.

      They’ve always known I was a weirdo tho. But distinctly a weird flavored guy.

      None of them saw it coming, but, because I’ve always been weird, they were like, “yeah, okay, checks out”

      • I don’t think any of the people who seemed to be distinctly treat me as not a guy had any suspicion I wasn’t a guy. And my brother was quite doubtful when I came out despite wanting to believe.

        Also my mom is sometimes treated socially somewhat like a guy even by people who knows she is a woman. Doesn’t mean they think she is a guy and I think most people would be surprised if she came out trans.
