    In Oregon, today, in a performing theater of all places, as I entered the vestibule of the women’s restroom, some old lady said “are you sure this is the men’s room? Wanna go check the sign once again?”

    So that fucked with my whole day.

    I thought I looked good, looked stylish. 13 years of HRT is not enough apparently.

    There’s pictures of me on my userinfo page.

      “it’s the women’s, I’m a woman. Wanna go check it doesn’t read “brainless muppet” you rotten hag?”

        I am far too polite for that. I’m the sort that stands off to the side of the sidewalk when a bunch of people are walking in the opposite direction, and in a line abreast, and I wait patiently for them to go past. I’m the kind of person that does a quick bow when someone holds the door for me. I’m the kind of person who takes as little space as possible, and tries to be mindful of the harmony needed for society to move along.
