I am personally not in a postilion to correct people right now as I am still using my dead name with some people… in the future though I would LOVE to just say “no need to apologize, you got it right the first time.” Keeping in mind that for those that are working retail, it is probably best to politely correct whenever possible.
Now just out right aggressive shit like when I heard some guy behind my back say something along the lines of…
(was going to leave a very upsetting example here but decided to spare you the example, but let’s just say that while I am boymode-ing often it is obvious to many that I am either trans or queer based on my appearance)
…as I was still working I just turned around and while my voice and words were nothing but polite… I am sure my expression did the trick because the dude shut up fast.
(I hate my body (my height being one thing I wish I could change), but in situations like that, an upset expression from a 6’2" person is somewhat more affective)

I giggled (and I’m sorry you hate your body, I understand your feelings, can’t do much about it except offering you hugs ♥️)! I doubt that would work for me as I’m literally the opposite of a strong person sooo nobody would get scared lol 😂

I’m quite different since I’ve always been quite the rebellious enby myself and I’m pretty quick to call most people out when it comes to crap like this. Though I actually didn’t change my name since I quite like my name (Julian).
Spicy version: “Wow thanks for deliberately misgendering me while trying to seem polite about it” *with as much sarcasm as I can muster
Both of these are equally justified in my situation being that I do wear pronouns, and I am quite obviously an androgynous enby. So in that manner this type of thing would very much be intentional.
for example? what would you say?
