| Apparently some make a distinction regarding whether they pass or not to address this. James Barnes is one person whose written about this https://www.newsweek.com/trans-man-broken-men-1817169 |

| ▲ | jimbokun a day ago | parent | next [-] | | That’s a great article but it confuses me how the author shows affinity for so many feminine traits and stereotypically feminine interests, that I wonder what the draw or perceived appeal of living as a man was. Maybe that’s in a different article. | | |

Its not uncommon for this to be confusing, you could just accelerate your understanding by having someone deconstruct why it is still confusing for you |

| It's an interesting philosophical question. Even if a male who makes some effort to disguise himself as female claims that he now experiences life as women may, in a general sense, do so, I don't see how he could possibly know if this is true or not. Being male and not female, he doesn't have this experiential frame of reference to make the comparison. |

| Depends how well they pass and if the other person knew them pre-transition. |

| those considered passing, yes and that of a man as a trans man. there is a lot less fanfare, media, and discernment on this compared to trans women, while being more common than people think |
