Search Results: approaching strangers

My husband noticed that since he's been at his job, people who know him talk to him much more often than people at his old job did back when he was living as a woman. It's the same type of office job as before, and his personality n how he acts hasn't changed at all. Just now people know he's a man, & they're more friendly toward him at work and social events.

And I've noticed the opposite in interactions with strangers when out running errands n shit. When I was living as a man it was rare for a stranger to initiate conversation w me out in public. Now it happens fairly often. And same thing i act the same, I talk the same, just now I look like a woman & strangers approach/talk to me more in public.

& is this true for you as well? Men, are acquaintences usually very friendly to you, but strangers don't talk to you? Women, do strangers often approach you but acquaintances can seem distant/quiet at work and such?
