I had to leave work early cause I couldn't stop crying and I couldn't bare to be misgendered again...

Im 5 years into transition, and most of the time I can be misgendered and I can have it roll off without getting to me.

Sometimes like today someone will just casually give me a "sir"... and to no fault of their own cause im sure my voice is just undoubtedly masculine. It's this sort of effortless way of being identified wrongly that especially stings... like after all of my progress and thinking im getting somewhere, it's quickly taken by the simple fact that some people do not see me and they have to be the reminder that surgery was probably my best bet for not being misgendered but thats never gonna happen cause im poor. Now im sad and wanting to know how to not let this eat me from the inside out?

The last 5 years of being out has been such a ride. My wife has been such a rock for me ❤️

Went out to a straight club in a very republican area... it went good!

Some awkward lingering stares, but i was told welcome to womanhood
