samus's clocky untrained voice from the opening of super metroid >>>>>>>

it's only for two lines before she switches to typing instead of speaking. but like, she just straight up sounds like me

tgirl samus real

the reason Samus never speaks is because she has voice dysphoria. like, the only time we hear her talk is these few words in the super metroid opening, when she talks to Quiet Robe, and when she's screaming like a bad ass during the final boss battle in metroid dread.

Shinjuku Boys (1995). Tatsu, a transgender man, jokes with his barber about his changing appearance, and his newly masculine features.

80% of "passing" is having enough money to purchase the clothes and services that will allow you to pass. Please stop holding being able to stealth up as the pinnacle of trans achievement. That place belongs to surviving. It belongs to finding joy. It belongs to love and community, not people who are rich enough to have professional makeup artists and tailors.

also, some people just won't pass. that has to be okay. some (myself included) do not even want to pass. that also has to be okay.

I would also include, also related to wealth, but a good bit of passing is weight and is a large reason we privilege and praise trans girls as long as they're skinny and don't take up space.
