I want to write a story about growing up and how fucked up it is to assume that trans girls receive male privilege just like all the cis boys do.

Like, I came across the assumption from a blog post a year ago that trans women have male privilege in not having to deal with society's expectations of what a woman should look like - and I came across this shortly after [livejournal.com profile] auntysarah described encountering exactly the same attitude and responding with something like "imagine dealing with that while you look like a boy."

So, I mean, there's a lot of male privilege that is based on being cissexual.
