Dylan Mulvaney feels ‘hot and confident’ dating as a trans woman
Trans influencer Dylan Mulvaney has spoken about dating as a trans woman.
Mulvaney, who earlier this year performed her new one-woman show, Faghag, at the Edinburgh Festival Fringe, told fans on social media: “Me and my trans girlfriends talk about not leading with the idea that someone’s not going to be interested in us because of our transness.
“Instead, I let myself feel hot and confident. I think other people could tell that.”
She went on to say that writing and performing her one-woman play made her feel happy, but it seems that’s not the only reason she’s got a smile on her face.
“I did some dating this summer,” she admitted. “It was a very Mamma Mia summer.”
The influencer also hinted at something new that she’s been working on for a long time and offered advice to any of her fans who were struggling. “If anyone is feeling really down right now, just know you’ve got a holdout. It’s coming.”
Last month, Mulvaney announced that her debut book, Paper Doll: Notes from a Late Bloomer, would be published soon. It will address her first year of transitioning, as well as rediscovering trans joy “after extreme pain”.
