I present rather androgynous, so this has lead to some interesting situations Sometimes going to the restroom will be a struggle depending on how I dress that day. I mostly use the restroom the corresponds with my AGAB, because I really don't care. I've gotten a lot of stares when I use the restroom, of surprise, confusion, disgust. It's scary... I worry one day it might not end well.
On a lighter not, my androgynous looks have also had more fun consequences. I recently played a role in a play as someone who was not my AGAB. Apparently people were whispering in the audience, trying to figure out what I was. I found it funny and euphoric that I confused them over my gender and looks. -Crow they/them

I’m a biromantic homosexual, I’m also trans masc, but my body looks like my assigned gender at birth, it triggers my gender dysmorphia, but my mom thinks I’m just going through a phase, but I have always hated that I was born a female, and at least I have an understanding boyfriend who thinks I’m the greatest person he’s ever met.

Getting harassed by random people because I dared mention that I'm not a cis straight person. Also, I have to literally straighten up every time I see an extended family member, since my grandparents are older and two of them are more conservative.
My grandma asked me about my "friend" a few days ago, and I had to remember how to describe her in a heterosexual manner, not just saying "she's chaos, but my chaos" or doing the little hand flip thingy/finger guns.
