While it's certainly a ridiculous thing to say, the part that stood out to me was 'with compliments'. I'm assuming she's not using that term in the same way a hotel uses it when they put a bottle of water on the coffee table 'with our compliments' - I'm assuming that she just wants people to say nice things about her.

My response would be that, since she wants to rigidly enforce gender conformity across the board, as a man she needs to get used to not being complimented. Sorry love. Also bottle those feelings of dysphoria up and take it on the chin, like a man, eh?

Yeah. Does she not realize men rarely compliment each other on looks and women don’t do it it unless they’re trying to flirt with a guy? Dear lord, I hope she has enough sense to realize none of the guys (gay or straight) are handing out compliments, none of the straight women are going to do anything resembling flirting with her, and none of the lesbians want to put up with that bullshit.
