      I did a fun (for me) science thread, but I promised I'd do a thread about trans men, virilismia, and the stigma against ugly women, so let's go! To start out: Are you a trans man whose spent some part of your life being perceived as an ugly woman? What do you make of that?

      It's really weird for me. Because I was so obviously good looking. I look at pictures now and I just was. I got called manly looking even though I was extremely feminine. I was called ugly, even by people who were attracted to me, because liking me was embarrassing.

      But, embarrassing in a way that it wouldn't be to like any other woman. Like, I would date the nerdiest guys and they would still be like ashamed to date me and not want anyone at school to know. Or people messaged my husband shaming him for being with me

      Yes! I got that too! I've noticed that a few trans men had that experience. This is the most masculine me I looked in highschool. I usually looked way more femme. And people would really act like it was Gay to like me (it kind of was).pic.twitter.com/FiPZTQbguj

      yeah, i always had an all over the place style, but back then it was always now femme than not. it's funny when they say "everyone can tell your *real* gender" bc they're right, just not how they think they are lol

      Oh yeah, I remembered another thing that was weird to me. People often called me things like scary or intimidating. I got a lot of comments on my size, not just regarding weight. You would think I was huge with the comments I got. But I was not even 5'6" and 150lb.

      I'm 5'2" and I got a lot of "No way... you can't be that short, I never thought of you as a short person!" (Those days are, sadly, in my past I think. You can't be cis male passing and 5'2" without anyone noticing lol.)

          That's one of the things I think about when people describe trans men as "intimidating". Like, it's really weird how that switches. And, it's kind of only a thing that can be used against you. But, not in the same way that cis men are intimidating.
