    When i went to change my name with the bank, they asked if i wanted to change from miss to mr and i said yes but the system wouldnt let them change from a feminine gendered term to a masculine one so they picked something gender neutral and made a note on paper that it was meant to be Mr. And that's how i accidentally became a professor and had my bank letters addressed to Professor McCarthy for a while.

    I once left my packer at my cishet friend's house. Her mom found it &, instead of being upset, chastised her for not cleaning her "strap-on" & tried to teach her about proper cleanliness with sex toys. She got through a whole rant about staying safe during sex "even if she was a lesbian" before my friend told her I was trans & that I'd left it at her house. Her mom still teases me about it lmao

    The first time I passed, this big scary looking man and his equally scary (but skinny) son were in the paper towel aisle.
    I was both intimidated and disappointed, because I was having a super dysphoric day and I knew there was no way in hell I would ever pass, especially in front of these guys. Anyone who saw me, a short, round-faced teenager with a binder that didn’t fit properly next to two huge, heavily tattooed, full-bearded, very masculine men would have never thought I was male.
    Two seconds after this thought process, the bigger guy accidentally bumped into me. “Sorry little man, didn’t see you there! Have a nice day bud!”

    I'm genderfluid and the first (and only) time I used the men's bathroom wasn't really out of my own volition, and didn't really went well... But not really bad either, anyway I was too dead on my feet to really react. It was last year, in january, and I was finally done with my first semester finals (understand I had like maybe 8 hours of sleep during an entire week and I was only still standing due to a lot of coffee and a sugar high) and I had to wait 2 hours in the trainstation so I could go home.
    Obviously, all the coffee I drank made me want to pee, so at first I tried to wait to be on the train because there the toilets were free and gender neutral, but I still had like an hour to wait and at some point I couldn't anymore, so I went to the bathroom. In this trainstation you had to wait for the cleaning lady to tell you to go in so it didn't get crammed with people, but there wasn't anyone and she wasn't there, so I prepared the money (it's not free in touristic areas) and went inside to find her, she was cleaning the women's bathroom. I said hello and paid her and she looked at me (I was a boy then, and I was dressed like one, but I'm also really petite, kinda small and so f*cking shy that my voice goes soft and high when I speak with people I don't know, so I really didn't pass well at all...) and told me to use the men's bathroom with such a gentle voice I could have died, and that she had just cleaned it and that there was no one inside.
    Anyway I thank her, go next door and try not to die due to the elation rush on top of the caffeine overdose and the lack of sleep. That was the part that went well.
    Then, as I was still in a stall in the men's bathroom, I started hearing a man arguing with the cleaning lady but I didn't pay it too much attention because that much emotion had drained me and I was feeling comatose. I step outside the stall and go wash my hands and I hear that the man wants to use the bathroom without paying and is really disrespectful to this lady, then he started to say that he would pay, but not her (probably because she was an old black woman, while his words weren't outwardly racists (still sexists though) there was still that subtext in some of his formulations, you know, casual racism) but she wasn't having any of his bullshit.
    I was stepping outside the bathroom when he saw me and went red in the face with anger, yelling that I shouldn't be here, that it was the men's bathroom and that I was a girl, and he was like middle age and big and getting in my face still yelling, and maybe I would have reacted better than just flinching away if I wasn't so dead, but turns out I didn't have to, because the cleaning lady got in between and defended me, told him with a cold voice that I had been extremely polite and nice and sweet, before telling him that he either paid her, shut up and go to the bathroom or she would call the security, and he left because even though she was smaller than me and much older than him, she was huge and scary like a mamma bear inside. Then she patted me on the arm and went back to cleaning and just tutted when I tried to apologise, so I said thank you and goodbye and went back to sit on a bench to wait for my train.
    Best cleaning lady ever. Also she was doing a really good job because these were the public toilets the cleanest I had ever seen. She was amazing, I think I will always remember her!

They are truly the most amazing fics, giving a history and culture the the enslaved people of Tatooine, and it may make you feel better about being called Skywalker. In the Tatooine myths Fialleril has created, "the Skywalker" who slaves name themselves for is Ekkreth, a non-binary trickster deity.

      Also, you would think that medical professionals who do surgeries on trans patients and treat them afterwards would at least be trained on what different terms mean, and to use someone’s correct pronouns and name- at the VERY bare minimum. Stuff like that makes me incredibly angry because there’s a huge lack of awareness when it comes to trans health topics, even among doctors themselves. 9 times out of 10, as a non-binary trans person who is chronically ill, I’m the one teaching my doctors about how they should be treating me. That’s unacceptable, plain and simple

    • @masens.9010
      @masens.9010 4 роки тому +195

      It also makes it really hard to find doctors, because you usually never know who is both trans-friendly AND trans-competent. I think all doctors should be aware that binary and non-binary trans people exist, some of us are also disabled or chronically ill, and they need to know how basic things like how hormone therapy affects our bodies in various ways

      Also, why'd they call you she if you're obviously a guy ? Did they do it because your medical files say female ? Because once I was in the hospital and was misgendered, but the nurse eventually started saying he with the realization that I am a guy.

    I was at Costco the other day, and for those don’t know, they’ve got loads of free samples to entice people to buy things. Furthermore, if you’re a young kid, you have to have an adult with you to ensure they don’t give any kids something they’re allergic to. I go up to get a sample (note: I’m nonbinary but I try to present more masculine and I just got my hair cut super short) and the lady asks “do you have an adult nearby?” To which my response is I’m 18... /I/ am an adult... and she gave me THE MOST SUSPICIOUS LOOK. Thankfully I was out shopping with my parents and my dad was nearby to say “yeah that’s my kid also they’re an adult” while also trying not to die laughing... 😅

    TIP: If you’re scared to come out as [insert whatever sexuality you are] then make up a random friend and tell your parents that your “friend” recently came out and then see their reaction
    Example;
    “My friend (made up name) came out today! What do you think about that?”
    “(Insert reaction here)”
    **i find it helpful to use a made up name so IF your parents aren’t accepting, you won’t have to explain that you weren’t serious, and you won’t get potentially forced to drop a friend**
    !!Only come out when you’re ready :) no pressure!!

    I used to work as a cashier, and children would get confused about my gender all the time. I'm transmasculine, afab, and back then I had a buzzcut. I had customers' children several times calling me a boy (which kinda made me happy), and then their shocked parents would "correct" their children and apologize to me profusely; "Oh, I'm so sorry! You know, kids think that short hair automatically means you're a boy! (To the kid:) The cashier is a girl!" I still work at a grocery store but not at the cash register very much, so I haven't really had this happen anymore, luckily (also, I moved and the area I work at now doesn't have that much small children).
    EDIT: Oh, I also remembered something else! When I graduated, I wanted to wear a suit instead of a dress (I was in the closet back then, so it was a big thing). When my dad posted my graduation pics on Facebook, my dad's boss called him and said "Oh, congratulations on your *son's* graduation!". Then my dad proceeded to correct his boss and tell me afterwards how "ridiculous" it was for the boss to mess it up like that.

    I’m pre everything and 13, but I pass really well. This was literally three weeks ago. I was at camp and since we were doing a water based (sea based) camp- I live in NZ- we had to get changed a lot, in and out of togs and wetsuits. At the end of the day, I was changing back into normal clothes in a stall in the female changing rooms at the facility that was hosting our camp, and I came out of the stall with my bags, looking down and avoiding eye contact. All of a sudden this little girl (different school, probably 9ish) yells out “WHY IS THERE A BOY IN HERE” my flight or fight response made me bolt out of there. Later, some of the girls in my year who were also in the changing rooms comes up and starts apologising and saying they feel bad. I just awkwardly laughed and brushed it off because I don’t know them well enough to “come out” and explain it to them. (One of them, bless her soul, said “I’m so sorry,,, you don’t look anything like a boy I don’t know why they thought that” which kinda hurt but I knew they were trying to make any normal cis female feel better)But my friends who I am out to started dying of laughter when I told them the story, and it’s honestly kinda funny.

I'm not saying be aggressive, perhaps interupting a person with "Sorry but I'm not a girl" even if it is rude to interupt it's much better than just gritting your teeth and baring it. I also know how hard it is to bring up the fact "I'm not a girl... no I'm not a boy" in casual conversation with strangers but one must give it a try and stand up for themselves at least once.

They would question me about it every time, and each time I explained my situation and asked them to please update it on their system. Each time, however, I would later discover that they ignored me and didn't change it. FINALLY a few months ago I went to a different hospital and a lady changed it for me so it wouldn't keep being brought up everywhere that I show my health card. It was just really frustrating and awkward to have to explain that I'm trans to strangers, all while surrounded by people in crowded waiting areas with almost nothing to do but eavesdrop.

    My awkward story was coming out. My mom and brother were visiting me at university for graduation, and my brother asked why my roomates were calling me my chosen name. I said "its cause I'm trans," meaning nb. (Everytime I explain nb to cis people I say it's a type of trans person.) I had already told my mom I was nb and explained it in that way so I thought she would know what I meant. She didn't lol. Like an hour after that she was saying good bye and everyone else was in the car, and she said "can I call you my son now?" And I just burst into tears.
    I kinda knew I was ftm for a while at that point, but was afraid of the change that coming out would bring. I had just been shoving it to the back of my brain for like a year. I was living in an apartment with all girls, and my bf was a straight guy. When she said that it all came out.
    So yeah, I came out to my family by accident, and it happened before I had even let myself acknowledge what/who I was.

This girl was walking out when we went in and muttered. "why's a boy going into the girls bathroom?" Before the door fully closed I heard her telling security. So we laughed and washed our hands. When I went to walk out the door this other girl waiting in line for the toilets asked. "why are you even in here?" I just told that I legally had to use this one. Her face was hilarious. Right after we left we saw security walk in and walk out very confused. It was really funny.

Literally berating me (didn't help that classes were held at a church) and so I had to explain to her that I was a girl. I was fairly young, so I wasn't very obviously a girl, and to boot I had short hair. It was a bad experience but I can clearly remember the feeling of discomfort when I had to correct her, and it's probably one of my earliest memories of really feeling... Weird, about my gender.

I was on my way out of the bathroom and a teacher stopped me. And we had a very odd conversation.

    1. The woman checking passports before security was super confused when she saw my passport. I don't totally remember what happened but I think she asked me some questions and I had to say my birth name. Before I said it I had this long pause trying to prepare myself so she asked me more questions to make sure I was the same person on my passport.
    2. The airport had switched form metal detectors to body scanners. When I realized this I basically had a minor panic attack. Nothing happened fortunately, probably because I'm a minor.

    In short, I knew I was trans (FTM) when I was in my early teens. It took me a 4 page letter, that I mailed, and a dinner discussion with my parents to come out. I lived 20 minutes away from them. I came out to my parents when I was 33 years old. Thankfully, they were lovingly accepting, but had thought I was going to come out as a lesbian instead. To give you some perspective, the group of friends I hung out with in high school, all of them had come out as either gay or lesbian.
