A transgender man claims that because of his naturally androgynous look, he is “every time” and is “every day” due to his naturally androgynous appearance. He also goes so far as to say that he is “transitioning.”
Lucas McCarson revealed that individuals frequently inquire about whether he was born a person or a transgender person despite being born a man and identifying as a man.
The 21-year-old Kentucky-based barista’s story became popular after he shared a particularly poignant trade with a client who thought he had transitioned, adding that the practice has improved his empathy for transgender people.
Lucas said the unknown woman in question mistook him for a trans woman in the video, which received nine million opinions, before saying, “God can rescue you from this.”
On TikTok, Lucas shared a picture of himself telling the story, in which he explained that the client “looked him up and down,” grabbed hold of his hands, and said, “As a Christian woman, I feel determined to let you know that God has you in his hands.”
He explained: “Often the type of people who feel the need to say that, particularly to people who look like me, are generally of the condemning music.”
Lucas noted that he simply thanked her because he wasn’t sure what else to say because he didn’t want to cause a scene and draw even more attention to himself.

Lucas noted that he simply thanked her because he wasn’t sure what else to say because he did n’t want to cause a scene and draw even more attention to himself.
But, when the user added, “Know that God may bring you back from … this,” Lucas confessed he was fairly thrown off- but not surprised.
The 21-year-old said that the practice was typical for him and that he should have learned to “flow with my androgyny without feeling like it was holding me up.”
“I am both a compromise of feminine and masculine, because there are no rules. I just happen to look the way I do, and I consider that to be a gift.
I almost always feel like a lady in almost everything I do. Even with small hair, I was mistaken for a lady all the way up in middle school.
“I have been blessed with my sister’s Filipino chromosomes. I think I have the best combination of historically romantic features.”
And despite never acting or dressing like a girl, he said that strangers don’t support but to point out the 21-season-old’s feminine traits.
He admitted: “No matter how I dress or act, people automatically assume I am a person. As a cis-person who has never had to change, it made me feel really uncomfortable.
I’ve not been identified with anyone other than my identity, so I’m frequently enraged when individuals look at me and frequently treat me like a woman or trans people.
“I wake up like this. I don’t “dress up as a woman”. I put on a pair of pants. I don’t “talk like a woman”. I really speak.”
Lucas noted that it has helped him understand how trans people feel every day despite the frequently troubling situations where he is frequently misdiagnosed as a different identity.
Although I do not live my life as a woman, Lucas said, “I do not understand how far respect women deserve nor how much fortitude and tenacity they have. This gives me information into how people and transgender people are treated every day.”
The tape, which has so far amassed over 1.6 million views, attracted several messages from stunned viewers who wondered if the 21-year-old is a woman.
One man commented: “You’re but extremely androgynous. I LOVE IT.”
“You are apparently both fairly and handsome concurrently,” said another viewer.
Somebody else added: “Bro you are wonderful what the devil.”
Another fan said, “I don’t even think I’ve seen anyone who hovers the gender line this passionately and I love it so much.”
One customer commented: “Gowns CRAZY.”
“I’m really confused, but even you’re very and handsome?? Aid- my sex sensor is confuzzled,” another audience said.
