To those of you who wear items of women’s clothing that onlookers either do not notice or if they do it is perceived as “iffy/edgy” (examples: tight jeans, women’s Tshirts or polo shirts that could be perceived as male clothes, stud earrings, long hair, long nails, imperceptible makeup, painted nails, bra showing slightly through shirt, underdressing):
1. How how do you think you are perceived?
- As an effeminate male or gay.
- As a male who has an unorthodox sense of style (like goth).
- As gender related: genderqueer/CD/gender-fluid/etc.
- As transsexual.
- As a woman.
- Other, and if so, then what.
2. Which of the above do you feel like when you wear these things?
3.How would you like to be perceived?As which gender would you like to be perceived?
These questions are open to everyone, however if you are TS and/or transitioning, please identify as such in your post ... I'm wanting to get a sense of how the people who dress this way feel, who do not identify as TS and who are known as male to most people in their lives.
<Edit>
I've just changed my 3rd question, since some of you have responded "human". Yes, I know we are all seen as human and I'm sorry for not being more precise. Which category of human would you like to be perceived as regardless of sexual orientation: male, female, genderqueer, or transsexual?
