Do you *want* people to assume you're a man?
In my thread about my doctor esperience, I made mention of the fact that if you saw me, you might assume I'm male. I was asked if I liked the idea of "passing". I replied that I hate that I can/do "pass". What does everyone else think?

I shoot for human being first, followed closely by somewhat smart and funny. As long as people are nice to me, how they perceive me is entirely up to them.

Doesn't MIT offer gender studies classes?

  I am just kidding with you. I am gonna assume that if you are not a man, or identify as a man, then your not going to like being referred to, or mistaken as a man. It is just that simple. How do you handle it when you "steph" are mistaken for a man? Another interesting topic...

Um women wear jeans and t shirt too.
I understand the underlying stuff that's going on, but I am real confused why people don't understand the issue of butch women not wanting to be seen as men. Oh well, learn something new every day.

most female id'ed butches i know want to be perceived as women. most male id'ed and trans butches i know want to be perceived as men.
clothing doesn't "make" one's gender id. i agree with bulldog...jeans and t-shirts are not just for men. Quote:

i know what charming is talking about, and i know what bulldog is talking about. we are all just different and assuming is most often not a good thing to do.
truth. i like doing tomboy stuff. i'm not a man. i like being a woman. just because i have a ball cap on, ... don't assume i'm male. men don't own the patent to ball caps. |

I am me, male ID's so for Me, yes, but my cloths don't make who I am, my brain does. Other folks not so much. Personal preferences are just that. Am I seen as a man in the world? Sometimes, until I turn sidewise, ya' just can't mistake the chesticals....

I really don't care if a store clerk or someone like that temporarily mistakes me for a man. But I don't want to be viewed like a man or seen as a man or treated as man. It also doesn't surprise me that butches who prefer male pronouns wouldn't care.
I do wear all mens clothes and I am a butch woman.

I wasn't born with a handbook that said I had to dress in certain clothes, and certain colors. It bothers me that along with gender assignment so many think the outer part has to meet the so called "normal" look.
