Hi, Ladies.
Throughout the course of my outings en femme, minor incidents occur that may be worthy of note but do not necessarily warrant the creation of a new thread.
I thought others might have similar experiences and how interesting it would be to combine them all into a single thread.
The incident I have to share happened inside a thrift store. I wanted to see an item that was locked inside a glass case near the checkout counter. I asked the checkout lady if she could call someone to help, as she was busy serving customers. So the lady says to another co-worker some 20 meters away:
“Jenny, can you show something inside the glass case to this...this...”
and at that point she seemed to be at a loss of words as to what to call me. She might’ve panicked a little, as she had clearly not finished her sentence and the silence was getting a little heavy, so I went to her rescue.
“I don’t mind being called a person”, I said. “Person” suits me fine.”
That seemed to diffuse things and life went on, but I think about it from time to time.
I'm curious what anecdotes others might have. Thanks.
