Its driving me crazy when half the time I get gendered wrongly, mostly without makee up

It drives me nuts when 1 person calls me sir after the other 100 people have called me ma'am.

Well, since I know I don't pass without makeup, I'm surprised when I am gendered correctly.

It sure used to, and still comes back. Now I'm gendered right 99.99% of the time.... At least until situations like one particularly mean guy the other day who just called me out and hit all my weak spots at once. Then I just question all of the previous and paranoia overtakes me and it feels like back to day one. Sometimes you just can't please people. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

I'me right there with you. I get gendered correctly 99.99% of the time as well, but when the one misgender comes around, everything starts to spiral down and I also start overthinking questioning everything. Like omg maybe everyone was just being nice to me even though they know I'm trans. Omg omg! And then I hide in my room for like a day and then eventually get over it and get back on with life It does suck though! It's not that they know I'm trans, it's that all the progress I thought I made away from my male form, different forms like DBZ lol, may just not be true progress and that's what kills me. Like I said, I overthink!!!!

Exactly.

I get called "sir" all the time. It's only when I am out with female friends over 5'9 that I get called "ma'am". Maybe they're being nice at that point because they're scared... lol
