walking stereotype

I feel like a pariah. every time i go outside i get the nastiest stares from everyone around me. socializing is a nightmare. i know i dont pass, i should expect to be treated like this and yet it still hurts every time i overhear a kid asking their parents if im a boy or a girl, or when the old ladies at thrift shops and supermarkets look at me like i'm the devil. or when someone in a jacked up truck revs their engine at me while i'm walking past.
I am a person, i have feelings, i have an internal world like the rest of them. why cant they see it? why do they feel the need to take time out of their day to make sure i know that they know and hate me for it?
tldr; being trans in rural america is a nightmare existence that i cant end soon enough.
