How does a transguy pass as a transguy and not a straight guy? (Sorry if that is worded wrong.) I really want to get a visual/understanding on this. Thanks. GG

I am wondering after to thinking about this some more if you meant: How does a transguy pass as a transguy at LGBT specific functions? And not just a st8* guy off the street showing up.
if so, I guess the best thing to do when in doubt is ask them: how they came to be at a bf function or whatever the function is. Most transguys i know dont have a problem saying they are trans to enlightening folks that they might belong there.
The problem is most dont ask, they just assume that some st8* guys wondered in off the street to crash the party.
When in doubt, ask.
I wanted to add, also, just for the sake of saying, its nobodyelse's place to say , oh so and so is a transguy or so and so is butch, or so and so femme. People realy should ask the folks they are inquiring about themself. Even where i work, it's up to me to tell ppl I am a trans guy or not.
Where we get into trouble is assuming ; ie: butches use male pronouns, femmes dont strap, and so on.
thanks
