everytime we meet someone who thinks I’m cis (passing), my friend tells them I’m “actually” trans
Post Body

I’m Pre-T for context. Obviously have bad dysphoria and a fear of passing but I naturally already look androgynous so it’s usually not too big of a problem even though it’s obviously still painful.

My best friend has a lot of friends that know of me but don’t know me. Multiple times my friend will tell me “hey did you know (name) thought you were cis? They had no idea you were trans!!!!”

Which is obviously very validating for me but…. Am I wrong for being a bit upset that my friend tells someone I’m trans every time they think I’m a cis guy? Once she tells them I’m trans I feel like they’ll only see me as a trans guy, not a guy.
