Just another thread about going out and about and owning it. As I was paying for a purchase at a large pet supply store the cashier asked for my name and phone number to update their new system for my discount card after being gendered as female by using the Ma'am pronoun. Now when I loudly said my first name, Albert, she responded with "excuse me?" so I repeated my name and the woman next in line to me gasped, I then said and spelled my last name and gave a phone number and then the cashier thanked me with a Ma'am, at that moment the other woman complimented me on my hair style and asked if I styled it myself, now using my normal voice which I do always now no trying to hide it, I proceeded to put my change, the bills in my wallet(female) and the coins in my coin purse then in my purse and on my way. I must tell that I was expressing my femme self in clothes and full make-up(a bit above everyday looks) nails and jewelry, now what was said afterwards I do not know or care, I had other things to do. Maybe it's this time of year but everyone seems to be nicer even to this old CDing fellow.
