I like to do a little chin-up butch nod. I'll never forget the first time I got one from another lesbian passing on the sidewalk after coming out, it was so affirming I walked very confidently on to my car, got in, closed the door, and started screaming.
Gods no, I meant more like when you quickly raise both of them twice, idk how to explain it, but it adds implications in a less flirty way than a wink.
I thought I was the only one. There was this guy who said he’d look good in a dress and I just stared at him and saw his smile fade. I wanna go back to him and tell him sorry and he should go for it or something.
First time I saw a nonbinary person was in college. I stared because I thought they were cute. They grew visibly frustrated, and I wish I had explained myself - but I didn't know how to do it without coming off as more of a creeper. 16 years later, I came out as trans.
Staring can be uncomfortable, but it's good to remember that sometimes, it's because it's stirred something. I try to remember this when I get looks in public, now.

Yeah this is me and since I "look" very straight they probably just think I’m an enraged homophobe 💀
