'The very first time I went out in public dressed femininely after I came out, I had two other women say nice things about my outfit. I was stunned. ...'

,"Trans people of Reddit, what was the biggest 'culture shock' you noticed after transitioning to your gender?" The thread quickly filled with thousands of comments from trans folks sharing their experiences and perspectives. Here are some of their responses:"MTF here. I pass fairly well a good majority of the time, and something I knew about but never really saw first-hand until my transition was the sisterhood. Women will come up to me and just vibe in dangerous areas.

"I always return the favor. I pay a lot more attention to other women when I'm out and about. If I see a dude being a creep to someone, I'll go talk to her and give her an excuse to leave. If I see that a woman may not be in the safest situation, I'll do what I can for her, even if it's just watching her stuff while she is away to make sure no one takes anything, even if she never knows I was watching her stuff for her.""I'm FTM.

"And don't get me started on people freaking out over me being out alone at night. There's also a closer camaraderie among women just for being women, and so many men have absolutely no idea how to interact with a woman. I've been hit on and catcalled, and I never knew before how frequent this all was.
