stupid entity

like you know how some cis women will get mistaken for trans women for not looking "feminine enough" and get hit with transmisogyny? for me, since I'm pre transition and have a "male looking" face, people both online and in real life have repeatedly mistaken me for a trans woman, either straight up calling me a man or asking me if I'm transfem. my facial features make transphobes believe I can't possibly be a girl. and it's true, I'm not. but it leaves a bad taste in my mouth taking it as a good thing because I know I'm only getting gendered correctly due to transmisogyny. I'm not being hurt — my trans sisters are. benefiting from transmisogyny is a really odd experience and I don't feel good about being seen as a man at the cost of trans women's lives.
