I'm still shaking... so. I decided to hit Kohls up and buy some of the winter clearance stuff (Guy Clothes) because I plan to be 100% probably starting in January??? after my FFS. Anyways I have lost like 30 lbs and ALL of my guy clothes are too big and falling off me at work. So I figured I'd run over there during lunch (It only 5 miles away) and I am in full 100% work guy cloths... anyway jackpot $2 buck shirts marked down from like $60.... and 20 min later (Guy stuff is so easy to buy) I walk up to the counter with like 20 shirts and the cashier was trying to get me a discount because it is not me that normally shops at Kohls so they are trying to pull up my wife's info and ask me if I just want to open an account..I'm thinking it's about time I had my own card.. anyways she was having a problem and called over the department manager. Sweet older lady probably in her 70's looks up and asks me "Ma'am did you want to open a seperate account?" and it didn't register with me at all because I was trying to get my ID out, so I just said "Excuse me?" well my voice surgery isn't until July and she start apologizing profusely! and I am like "What? What happened?" She said I'm soooo sorry I thought you were a woman!" Okay so I start to like tear up, because unbeknownst to her that was the biggest compliment anyone could EVER make to me. And she starts saying "I'm so sorry, I'm sorry" and I said no you don't understand. I'm transgender and I am in the middle of transitioning so you just paid me the most amazing compliment. I quickly showed her a picture of me (Actually my Avatar picture) and she comes around the corner and hugs me and said I looked amazing. She went on to tell me she had a niece that was just coming out! So after paying, she took me to a managers desk and proceeded to make me a $50 Kohl's cash coupon to use on my new wardrobe! I was at this point crying all over the place and getting hugs from strangers lol I felt so amazing!
