i feel like at work there's an unspoken rule somehow that everyone KNOWS im transgender but nobody will say or ask if i'm transgender or what i want to be called. most people say when i DO reveal that i am is because they dont want to say the wrong thing (i dont mind at all unless someone's being malicious).
i think the OTHER part of people who know but dont ask is because they know but dont want to be cornered into ACTUALLY respecting me. because if its ambiguously known then they can she/her/girl/woman/lady me all they want. but if i say im a man and make what i want known THEN they'll get in trouble if they decide they want to #girl me.
#the people who itch about wanting to know the most are the most blatant at being an asshole about it tho#most of the time the people who wanna call me a girl will do it very flagrantly in an attempt to prod at me about it#BUUUT thats in the past now here. since i got back mfers who used to be jerks about it have ignored me entirely. which i love#i dont really even know why. maybe there was some sorta talk about it while i was gone#its funny tho. whenever i tell people im transgender they literally just go ''? yeah i know that already''#but its a coinflip on if they thought i was a dmab or dfab apparently. which is crazy to me.#SOME people call me she and her and girl the most BECAUSE they think im a trans woman and are trying to be respectful#i will even tell people ''nope you are confused. i am a transgender man. ahem 'born a girl became a man''' and its like they dont understan#i think IN PART its due to 'evidently some sort of transgender' 'being named after my dad'#'my chosen name at work being ambiguous as well' and lastly 'being intersex' that all sort of throws people off#ITS SO FUNNY THO because the people who are most hateful about it know EXACTLY what i am. they get it. and they hate it#the people who are nicest about it are like ''wow modern medicine is amazing .. hashtag girl''
