fascinated from like a sociological perspective at people misgendering me when referencing latest video despite the fact that I very visibly have no tits

NOT that I am implying tit-having should or shouldn't imply any particular gender

but on the flip side, how many body parts do I gotta cut off to get gendered correctly in this place

I'd understand if it was an opaque fabric but like. that's lace. you can literally see through it. there's nothing there. you'd think that would at least make people stop and think for a second

my theory is people make a snap judgement based on outfit and makeup in much the same way as as long-haired men are frequently gendered as women by children

a general presentation which otherwise reads femme is apparently enough to override this one extremely obvious genderfucky element

which is genuinely really interesting to me

@shonalika I've been having some very weird experiences with gender assumptions as a transfem being who tends recently to bind and present more masc, it's interesting that seems to be confusing to folks when I'd assume the ""obvious"" assumption would be to gender me male. It seems I genuinely am getting less folks assuming I'm a man than when I try and present fem, which is weird and I wish I understood it

@soweliniko idk why but just the 'which is weird and I wish I understood it' at the end is sending me, I feel like that's so much of the trans experience

@shonalika @soweliniko

cis people's understanding of gender is really weird. my working theory is that they tend to have one characteristic they're more predisposed to judge according to (which varies from person to person), and there's also a bias towards the first characteristic they saw.

so for example, since my voice is not that femme, a person who heard my voice before seeing me and a person with predisposition for voice will both be likelier to judge me as male.
