We need more! Share your joy!

My only disappointment with this community is that we don't get more traffic, so lets have a megathread and share anything that brought us joyful genderfeels this week.

My moment of trans joy this week was, strangely enough, at a bowling alley birthday party for one of my partners. I'm an AMAB enby and my typical tomboy fit is unintentionally stealth (folks see a fancy waxed moustache and just assume I'm a guy despite the B-cup padded tits and skinny jeans that emphasize my hips), so moments of recognition tend to be rare. Catching a very significant gaze from what appeared to be a queer teen absolutely made my day. I think I'm finally becoming the visible enby I never got to see in the world when I was a kid.

ER doctors asked me if I could be pregnant. That made me pretty happy 🥰

Does the twitch chat for a streamer I watch a lot calling out someone for misgendering me count for joyful genderfeels stories? x3 cause it sure makes me feel nice :3

Oooh, hadn't considered that but yes! I watched a video from a creator i like watching, they were doing a minecraft map called "The Trolley Problem" by Henzoid and it is VERY trans (ie, "fuck you, I'm trans, deal with it") in opening dialogue, and was pleasantly surprised/relieved by how supportive and not-bigoted they were about it.
