passing

adjective for a trans person who looks like they're cis, whether intentionally or not

usage mostly limited to where trans people are functioning within cis society, where everyone is assumed cis until informed otherwise — a person "passes" for cis until clocked. within trans circles, passing is irrelevant and a rarely used term, because everyone is assumed to be trans.

adopted from an older use of passing, meaning african-americans who move within white society in order to survive. sometimes disambiguated as white-passing and cis-passing. a less appropriative & more accurate term for trans "passing" is masking.
i know passing isn't encouraged anymore bc "trans visibility" or w/e but gawd some days i wish i could just pass at the grocery store and not have to have my guard up 24/7/365

the passion of the christ

A movie by the guy from The Road Warrior. A decent effort, however I noticed a lack of aliens, monsters, car chases, gunfire, and double anal scenes in this movie. Overall it is worth watching and I can't wait for Mel Gibson's Passion of the Christ Part II: The Revenge Of Jesus, coming to theatres in summer 2009.
"Why did we pay 10 bucks to see The Passion Of The Christ when we could have watched our old vcr tape of The Road Warrior instead and spent the 10 bucks on weed?"

"Mel Gibson re-wrote the bible, therefore Mel is our God".

"I haven't seen so much blood in a movie since Dead Alive"
