Tracii, that's a beautiful experience. I believe that any of us would like to live it but I disagree with you when say "I want to be honest with you about my gender?
If you call yourself trans your gender is female and is right with your preaentation, what's the lie?
As I said, it's all of us dream to pass as a cis woman so when we achieve it, should we "clarify" we're no real? We're impostors or we're fake?
On Instagram, almost everyday I have guys that chat with me thinking I'm a cis woman, even thought I clearly stated in my profile I'm a trans married woman not into guys but guys don't read and just watch pictures. That's understandable with pics because sometimes are not clear and can trick anybody.
A couple of times I had had encounters with guys thinking I was a cis woman trying to invite me, once and Uber rider and another guy while waiting on LAX my wife from a fly, with the first I just thank him and told him be married and the second, when saw me hug and kiss my wife, excuse himself and say goodbye. I didn't tell any of them I'm trans because is my final goal be treated as any woman and I don't feel dishonest doing it.
Mho.
