Being treated like one of the guys hits different

From what I've heard and read from other trans guys I knew that it would be nice, but I didn't expect it to happen this fast or for it to feel this comforting.

I had an exam today and a bunch of my classmates and I first went out for lunch and then met up in a park after a short break, just chilling with music and having some drinks. During the lunch one girl was with us, but she felt too tired to come to the park afterwards and it was just three other guys and me.

And the vibes and conversations were definitely different. Not sexist or anything, because they're all really chill guys, but a little crude with topics that typically don't come up in mixed groups. And it felt so good to be included in that, especially because don't pass yet. Which is a really good weapon against the "they don't see you as a guy, they're just humouring you" insecurities I get sometimes.
