Is 'more feminine than a woman' a compliment?

A long time ago, when a male friend was talking about his experience at a transvestite pub, he said, 'She was more feminine than a woman,' and I've felt uncomfortable about it ever since...
When I said, 'Hey, you don't see her as a woman, do you?'
My male friend replied without any malice, 'Well, she was originally a man...'
Also, regarding people who have transitioned from female to male,
there are people who say, 'He's more masculine than a man.'

More feminine than a woman
More masculine than a man
I can't help but think, aren't you judging them by their original gender? 😢
I don't think that's a compliment; I think it's shocking to the person being told that. If someone said that to me, I'd punch them! 😊

While this isn't true for everyone, many people over 60 who have little involvement with or understanding of LGBTQ issues really lack delicacy, and it irritates me. 😡
Every time it happens, I think, 'Stop projecting your own values onto others!'

If you ask whether men and women have the same perspective,
in my experience, women are not like that.
When I asked for advice on my makeup practice,
they give me advice as a woman, saying things like, 'Ichika, you should do your eyeshadow like this,' or 'Ichika-chan, this brand of cosmetics is cheap and I recommend it.' 💓
Even if we had interacted as men before, since I came out, they have treated me as a woman. 😊

I may have written this somewhere before, but
men are creatures who obsess over the past, while women are creatures who obsess over the present,
so perhaps men are just less flexible. 💦
That said, there are men who truly see me as a woman, and
I feel like there are more people younger than me who see me as a woman...

There's something that has made me think recently that times have changed,
I went shopping without makeup or a wig because it was a hassle, and I was able to pick out women's cotton shorts at Uniqlo and buy them normally without anyone giving me a strange look, and I also bought pantyhose at a drugstore and brought them home naturally. 😊
I think if it were 10 years ago, people would have been like, 'Who is this person?' 😅

I think times are changing, so I hope things head in a good direction from here on out. 💕

Lastly, the reason I went to buy cotton shorts was because a female friend told me, 'Ichika, don't just wear things that look like lingerie for a special night; cotton shorts are the best for everyday wear,' so I obediently went and bought some. 😅 I can wear women's sizes without any issues. 😊 Cotton is more comfortable. 😊
I thought I had been buying cute ones, but apparently, from my friend's perspective, they were lingerie for a special night...

So, I wrote about something I've been thinking about for a long time on Note. 😊
Thank you for reading to the end.💓Everything will be alright.🌟
Have a great holiday. 🌟
