How do women feel about this?

Justin B asked:


I am a transgender female. I have recently come out to my parents and am now living full-time. I am passable for the most part, except for my voice, which I’m working on. I am in therapy and will soon begin hormone therapy. I am just curious to know how women feel about someone like me? Does it make you uncomfortable to be around a woman like me in the restrooms and changing rooms and so on? Please be honest, I can take it. Thanks in advance.
The name is a typo. It should have been Justine.

    Why would you do that to yourself justin?….OOooo..justin..that sounds like a hot guy name.

    Accept yourself for who you are. You’re a guy…learn to live with yourself in your true element. Maybe, instead of getting a sex change, you should have spent some time building your self-confidence and dissipating your low self-image.

    I’m fine with it. It’s not like you’re a pervy guy that’ll be looking under stalls in the bathroom or stealing people’s babies in the changing rooms. LOL. It must be awesome for you. You get to be a girl without having to deal with all the crap girls have to go through. But congrats for having the courage to tell your parents!

    I would personally find it a little strange. However, I don’t tend to hang around in restrooms much, I just go in and go out again, so it wouldn’t worry me that much.

    Doesnt bother me in the slightest. For all intents and purposes, you are just another woman.

    In my citys marks and spencer (its a department store for those of you who dont live in the UK), there is a transgender female assistant in the women’s changing rooms.

    I would find it strange and it would make me uncomfortable.
    If they had a single restroom for men and women then you could go in there. But you chose to change nature. I shouldn’t have to put up with it.

    *edit* Yikes people! I’m being honest as was asked of me!

    It matters not in the least bit, I would just treat you like any other woman in the bathroom, you do your business in your stall, and I’ll do mine in another. As for the changing rooms, we do have doors on our changing rooms so it is not likely you or I will be seeing each other undress. Congrats on telling your parents and good luck! =P

    Not at all, I wouldn’t know you are in there or not. Good luck wish you the best in your transfer.

    I do not have a problem with it so long as you are not someone who wears an ill fitting wig, and wears make up in an obviously tacky way as if you do not know how to put it on, because this gives me the idea that you would be a whack job/Serial killer and then id be afraid to go to the bathroom.

    Very uncomfortable, but if you were friendly I would try to be your friend. That doesn’t mean though I have to accept everything you believe in and same thing with my beliefs.
