I've been misgendered a few times. I tend to dress masculine but have long hair so the times it's happened has been when I've had my hair in a bun under a baseball cap. Oddly most of those times were being called "son" by tram conductors

I find it hilarious. I respond normally but raise my voice an octave so they know I'm female, and then revel in their embarrassment.

If someone thinks I'm a bloke it doesn't bother me because I know I'm not. So why do NB/trans people get so upset. Do they not believe in their identities?

edit, caps not gaps
