I've definitely noticed a difference since transitioning to female when I go to a hardware store I get asked if I need help way more than before.

It's a combination of all of the above, I'm sure. Probably some sexism, but it could also be that now that I'm happier I project a friendlier attitude making me more approachable. I guess I'll never know!

I've definitely noticed that women are muuuuuuch friendlier toward me since transitioning which is really nice. Other women meet me eyes instead of averting it and usually flash a genuine smile (not a sheepish one like before), and will usually say something even if just a quick "hi!".

On the other hand, men are much more standoffish and weird around me, which I'm totally fine with lol

It's crazy that we gave away so much real estate to cars like in this cartoon and how we let the auto industry start blaming pedestrians for getting hit by cars rather than the other way around.
