Affirmations (self.trans_joy)
submitted 3 days ago* (last edited 3 days ago) by guenivere to c/trans_joy

Went out for groceries, including a couple 5-gallon water jugs. At the checkout, the lovely person at the register says Hi ma'am, pretends not to notice my 5 o'clock shadow that my makeup has for hours failed to hide, tells me she loves my bracelet, and then tells the young men helping bag items to "help this nice lady with her water".

I'll be hanging onto that. She was an angel.

Had a man go out of his way to open a door for me as I left a store today and not like a he was already walking in as I was walking out kind of thing. He was sitting at a table nearby and got up and opened the door for me. That's the first time that's happened and made me realize that I'm definitely unprepared to be getting attention from men lol

But I just love when people are nice. I remember every time early in my transition when someone gendered me correctly or just went the extra step to let me know they were cool and I was safe and seen.
