What are the pros and cons of ​“pass­ing” (being viewed by the major­i­ty as) your gen­der- espe­cial­ly when for trans peo­ple, this often means ​“pass­ing” as cis­gen­der (not trans) as well? I dis­uss some of the dif­fi­cul­ties with [pass­ing, the priv­i­lege inher­ent in it, and the dif­fer­ences good or bad in pass­ing or not pass­ing. it’s com­pli­cat­ed- feel free to send me ques­tions! I’m still learn­ing every day about the myr­i­ad impli­ca­tions of pass­ing in a world that fre­quent­ly mar­gin­al­izes cer­tain peo­ple’s identities.
