Is it because you knew them before as female, vs having met the trans women as women? It sounds like that's the major difference.

If a guy you always knew and thought of as a guy told you he were trans all along, would it be different?

That's a really interesting question. I've had friends of various gender and transitions, so I'd like to say no? But at the same time, none of the men I know have ever come out to me as trans. So maybe it does have something to do with me knowing them before their transition?

It sounds like it. Imagine a guy you know that you assume so far is a cis guy. If he came out to you and said he was born a woman, would you do the thing where you think he's a tomboy girl? I doubt it lol

"Female" actions and mannerisms get coded much harder than male ones so it's more obvious when someone born male is "feminine" so it might be easier to switch them over mentally than the reverse. Someone born male choosing to wear a dress is not the same as someone born female choosing to wear a suit after all. It sounds like it's simple struggling to adapt between what you knew them as and what they are telling you they are now
