Best misgendering ever. Your Christmas giggle.

[I Am Paula]

I usually only get misgendered on the phone.
I was standing in line to pay at a gas station, about sixth in line. In walked a woman who was clearly mentally disturbed, with her shopping cart of worldly possessions. She instantly reminded me of The Simpsons Cat Lady. She started ranting, and throwing chocolate bars at the attendant, who immediately started dialing the police.
While he was on the phone, the lady walked down the row of those waiting to pay, poking each one in the chest with her finger, and say ing "You're an A-hole, You're an A-hole, You're an A-hole", etc. until she got to me. She paused a moment, still with her pointy finger out, and declared "You're not even a woman!"

I'm not trying to poke fun at a mentally ill woman, but her comedic timing was perfect.

Ooh, that's really good. If I ever write a TG sitcom, can I use that? Glad you had your sense of humor about.

[kelseygal]

That is real life comedy at its finest! Way to be a good sport about it. And hopefully the gal gets some help.

You took it right out of my mouth, That would be the perfect line in a sitcom. I am glad you Paula had a sense of humour about it.

I think for those who struggle, they sense things more and have no filter. At my nephew's wedding, only my brother knew and it was less than 5 months before I was full time. My other nephew, who is autistic, broke one spell of silence by looking at me and saying "You know what, I am just going to say it. You look like a woman!" I froze and then laughed.

How was the reaction? Was everyone not paying attention to what she said because of her behavior?

So at least you aren't an asshole!

If Seinfeld were still in production I could totally see that scene as an episode! 😂😂

LOL . . . such a good sport. I suppose it could have been worse she could have proclaimed you were an Alien :)

Was she implying that all women are a-holes?

[jamielynn_ca]

I had a similar experience recently, a mentally ill man, I presume schizophrenic, was walking towards me on the sidewalk speaking to himself muttering incoherent phrases. As I approached I heard him exclaim "very beautiful... man" then he continued on his conversation with himself. I took it as a compliment and didn't engage. :)

Stumble, given that the OP says nothing of the gender of the people that the woman was poking with her finger, and given that we cannot climb inside her head, none of us can know what she intended to imply.
