Got gendered correctly by a stranger for the first time today!

Lumelore (She/her)@lemmy.blahaj.zone to Transfem@lemmy.blahaj.zone – 201 points –

Went to get a prescription today (not hrt, a different drug) and this guy tried to cut the line and the pharmacist said "sir, she is in line next" and it made me sooo happy. (And then I was sad that I had to use my legal name to get my script, but overall happy for getting gendered correctly)

Nice! I'm glad this turned out to be a positive experience for you. Keep having those!!

Congrats! I'm so happy for you! Just curious, are you thinking about changing your legal name? Sounds like it might be causing some dysphoria :/

I wish they'd prescribe parfume because there's a clear correlation between being gendered correctly and the quantity of parfume you wear.
