Lessons Learned VII

I think passing is a curious thing: an odd blend of that wanting to be safe (as in undetected), feeling right in one’s gender presentation, not wanting to upset others, to the more negative end of ‘not passing’ or not being good enough. There have been many times in my youth where I’d try my best on my femme appearance, only to catch sight of my body or face, and think what I mess I was. Cue the spiral of negativity on failing to meet your own standards.....

 

Lessons Learned VII is all about passing.  Great subject!  Awesome post, from Lynn Jones!
