Could use some kind words after being misgendered all day long on my birthday~

Don't let a bunch of dicks ruin your day. You look amazing, and nobody can take that away.

Pfft bunch of wankers.

How was your birthday regardless of those buzzkillers? Did you had a great time?

By the look of your selfie, you seem to be a very respectable woman with a great style.

So... Ignore them, smile them away. And smile to yourself, because you deserve that!

You look great, your hair is a lovely color, and I love your outfit! The pairing of green and muted/darker reds is great, it’s one of the few ways to pair green and red without giving Xmas vibes and you nailed it. Also stellar pattern mixing, it is really hard to pair plaids in similar colors but these go great together. I hope your birthday turns around and you end your day on a good note OP, you deserve to be happy today (and every day) :)

Just because I don't understand your journey, it doesn't make your journey any less valid.

Sometimes it's hard for an outside person to know where someone is on their journey and which way they are going based on a quick interaction. How they respond says more about their life journey than it does about yours. Sorry you had a disappointing day.

Heya, I’m a πŸ¦‚too! Happy birthday lovely 😊

Green singlet, red flannel is a classic look and you’re killing it! Maybe I’m being presumptuous, but I’d swipe right on these powerful gay vibes πŸ‘€πŸ˜

I love your style. What's your tattoo? I own like 10 tanks and a few flannels, we're like sisters from another mister πŸ₯°πŸ˜‚

What's your tattoo?

It's a silly 90s style tribal that covers my forearm

One can never have enough flannel <3

Mean people suck. Realizing that the problem was them and not you, reaching out to a friendly community for support - you handled it like a champ!Happpy birthday, and bask in the glow of knowing love and support are there for the asking!

Happy birthday! You and your outfit look great for cuddle weather!

You're cute, and I'm a lesbian 😊

Happy birthday! Things will get much better, and you'll find people who love you for who you are

How hecking dumb would someone have to be to misgender you. You rock, Happy Birthday πŸŽ‚

Happy birthday! You look great, don't let some dumbasses get you down.

Happy Birthday, you have great hair!

How hecking dumb would someone have to be to misgender you. You rock, Happy Birthday πŸŽ‚

Happy birthday, darling. I love your nails and you hair looks so healthy! I'm sorry you had a hard day.

Hey, you look great in this photo, but a real quick tip about mirror photos like these - it genuinely helps a lot to look into the camera in the mirror rather than to look at the phone to make sure the picture looks good while taking it, or at least to look elsewhere in the mirror. It gives a much better impression of your typical expression, unless your typical expression is in fact looking down with your eyelids mostly closed - but I say this from the perspective of someone who's eyes are usually drawn forward.
