When I do get it, I feel like playing dumb is the safer bet sometimes.

    thanks, appreciate the sanity check on that - I really struggled to understand the meme, lol

    Makes sense re not being hyperfem.

    I had a conservative colleague who at a lunch table once accidentally misgendered me early in my transition. I was wearing a full dress (honestly overdressed), and he turned to me after and said “sorry, ‘’‘she’‘’” in this heavily ironic fake-polite tone.

    I just smiled as if I appreciated his politeness 🙃

    I get it though, I look back at those photos and cringe at the man in the dress I see 🤢
