Ftm finally realized that people don't see her as a man.
And some of the comments are interesting to read:
"No I know exactly what you mean. The realization that just because you identify as something doesn't mean people see you as that thing. It was a rough one for me too"
And this one:
"
yes! this was very much something like my experience. for me, i think it's a combination of trans stuff and autism, but i absolutely spent a lot of my childhood ... just, without a sense of how others might read my gender; or that they might read my gender in any kinda way at all, really. definitely without the idea that they actually thought i was female.
this is mad embarrassing to admit now that i understand why it made everyone so upset, but i really didn't like wearing most clothes as a kid (as a physical sensation) and i kept taking my shirt off in public, like, into adolescence. while i understood that girls couldn't show their chests for some reason, i legitimately didn't really understand that other people seriously put me into that category. it took a lot of my family being really freaked out my occasional random public toplessness for me to start to internalize this."
