And, at the same time as being perceived as the smallest, weakest man, I'm also extremely out as trans with a minor but real public profile as a trans writer. I get belittled by sexists who think an extra X chromosome makes me inferior. Sometimes I get threats and harassment.

I can handle myself, online and off. But I'm afraid the idea that transitioning, and EVEN PASSING, is especially protective is based on some erroneous assumptions.
