I guess I am the "hon" friend (really struggle at passing, get harassed a lot, can’t get close cis friends and family to support me after multiple years) but that doesn’t matter when I’m with my friends. I’m confident and I’m happy to be close with them and somehow nothing that regularly happens to me occurs around them (not even being gendered male which is the only thing I’m gendered when I’m alone). I definitely have a more positive mindset than most nonpassers at my stage of transitioning but even then my friends would make life worth living no matter what. Don’t avoid potentially fulfilling friendships because of dumb posts like this and dumber passing/nonpassing divides.
