#passing

1 post1 participant0 posts today

Wer hat Ideen/Tipps für mich, wie/wo ich meinem „persönlichen Makeup-Stil“ finde? (Kosmetikstudio finde ich schwierig, weil (meistens/ausschließlich?) auf Frauen™️ spezialisiert.) Randbedingung: Es geht mir um (m)ein #SweetTransvestite-Makeup, nicht um #Passing. Ich habe nunmal ein maskulines Hautbild und möchte meinen Bart (wenn ich ihn denn mal stehenlasse, was nicht immer der Fall ist) integrieren statt ihn zu verstecken.

#Passing is survival.
Not all trans people want to blend into the normative male/female population, but sometimes we need to. Society is often enforcing norms of gender appearance and expression. To appear trustworthy, competent and acceptable, we sometimes have to go through great lengths. Imagine applying for a job, standing in court or walking through a hostile environment.
I'm proud of being queer, trans and non-binary. But I also want to learn passing, for survival in these situations.
