Sorry in advance, I'm really feeling affronted at the moment for reasons which may not be obvious.
You might look like the front line of the NE Patriots, but that does not mean because you like frilly things that you are a lesser person.
You might look like Ernest Borgnine in a sundress, but that does not mean that you FEEL any less than OWNING that sundress.
I can never pass, yet I have hair down to my shoulder blades, wear earrings and makeup, nail polish, and pretty clothes. I'm just ME.
Please don't confuse 'passing' as being the same thing as 'owning'.
Pretty people are pretty, regardless of gender or presentation. That is the base point of courage, and should support you against fear and criticism. OWN it.
