Some things I miss

[Bionca]

To present a lighter mood than I have been lately, here is a list of things that I miss since transitioning. Some of them are serious, some silly, all of them are true.

1) Walking alone at night
2) Going to a Str8 club unescorted
3) Pants with proper pockets
4) Clothing sizes that actually tell me if something will fit
5) Men looking me in the eye when we talk
6) Men not taking eye-contact as flirtation
7) Having my opinions about non-trans stuff taken seriously
8) Not having to explain to banks, credit cards, employers why some of my documentation doesn't all match up.
9) Guys appreciating it when I beat them at a game
10) Not being the tallest woman in a photograph
11) Belching REALLY loudly and nobody saying anything
12) Staying friends with guys I've had sex with but aren't currently dating
13) Guys buying me birthday presents that AREN'T underwear
14) Telling guys I'm a bottom..and them respecting that
15) Changing in the men's locker room at the gym *grin* *halo*
