Title: the lady called me "he"!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Post by: Bombadil on June 27, 2014, 03:54:59 PM
finally finally finally I got identified as he. I was at the pet store saying hi to a dog and the owner kept using male pronouns for me. At first I thought she was only talking about her dog because people who don't know my preference consistently misgender me as female. But she used "he"!!!! Woo hoo!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

yes. It really was. And I'm so relieved because I know I'm early on T but I was starting to think maybe no changes were happening at all

And today my friends were over and said I am definitely passing better.

Sorry, I didn't see all the replies. I haven't been identified as "him" again but it's a start
