I have some sort of weird respect for the transvestite that can fool people.
Not saying they should be dishonest if they have to speak on it, but it doesn't upset the scene when they roll thru. Only the one dude who tries to hit on them will go thru some emotional pain.
These strong ass men in wigs and dresses is light weight disrespectful. When they step in the room everyone is like "whaaaaatt". I cannot have a serious conversation with one cause my mind is reeling the whole time. Off kilter. Out of sorts.
The only transexual I seen in real life that pulled it off was actually a trans man. Born female but presented as a male. I HAD NO IDEA. Looked like about a 5'9" buff dude. Little stubble. Looked like dude was not for play. A coworker. shyt tripped me out when someone told me.
Trans women that I knowingly come in contact with - again several coworkers over the years - always looked like dudes dressed as women. Maybe some that can pass were around but I never knew.
