@emmalilian It's happened to me, too, and without having HRT as part of my transition. And, honestly, it's just the best thing ever. For a little while, I was worried I was receiving well-intentioned condescension, but, nope...it doesn't take that long a trip into femme presentation for that sort of thing to happen.
Just as wild is going to the home improvement store and seeing the way men now respond to me in places like that.
