She may have ‘detransitioned’, but to the average person, she still appears as someone straddling the fence.

Not quite male or fully female. This may just be a learned habit. A Peter Pan effect. If I saw someone like this, I would want to wait until I heard them speak before I could make any determination of their gender.

I don’t particularly care one way or another, but it’s a natural impulse for most people. We see someone, and our brain tries to make sense of the appearance. It all takes place in the first few seconds of meeting.

The effects of long-term use of testosterone did that to her. I’m guessing that her voice sounds more male than female as well. Hopefully that is the only damage done. But it is irreversible - at least the physical effects. Hopefully she gets the therapy she needs so her mind and spirit can be restored fully.
