Ugh, I hate when people feel the need to gender you every other word and repeatedly get it wrong. I’m sorry but like it’s not that hard to tell if someone is a woman or not, and even if you’re unsure you can just as easily avoid gendered terminology. So frustrating 🙄 I go out fully done up, push up bra and makeup on, wearing a cute dress and using my voice and sometimes still get misgendered seemingly out of spite.

Sorry you had that experience with the doctor. They can be so honed in on specifically us being trans. I’ve only ever had it once, but I know how invalidating and frustrating it is. Medical transphobia is so serious. I hope that’s your one and only experience with this.

I’m sorry you had a bad week with trauma :( are you seeing anyone professionally that you talk to about it? It’s so important to take our trauma seriously. It shouldn’t be debilitating, and we often just accept it as how life is for us. I hope you’re doing better today! ❤️

And thank you!! 😊 super new role for me, and the first time I’ve ever gotten a promotion, haha, so it’s all very new and exciting.
