It's a god damn shame, and to be honest, it's why I no longer feel comfortable attending trans/gender differential support groups in person anymore. The first people to jump down my throat and accuse me of being a "special snow flake" are trans men. Always. I feel bad "generalizing" but I've literally been harassed when I've attended meetings, and I live in a liberal state.

My clothes, at this point, are androgynous/masculine which upsets me as I feel so limited just to be taken seriously, in my own damn community. It's draining and frustrating.
It's not just frustrating, it's straight up awful. It's practically dehumanizing because they look at your clothes and decide your gender before they even know you!
