Starting to realize that some family and friends who knew me before I transitioned will forever dead name me 😑
I'm not necessarily mad over it, I did transition when I was 41 so they had a long while with my old name, just wish in public they would so new people wouldn't find out the old name.
@KarenSohne They've all shown glimpses and they are all part of my circle, so definitely more forgiving with them.
@MarvelousMadi13 I ran a robotic competition event over the weekend that had four trans contestants and not a single competitor had an issue or made any inappropriate comment. It made me very proud of my group.
@GaryPoole That's amazing 😊 Kudos to you and glad to see some trans representation.
@MarvelousMadi13 I hope in time, they'll be able to form a new habit. 🤞🏻 I get the sense that it isn't malicious.
@stueytheround Fingers crossed! I give them subtle fun reminders here and there 🤣 and yeah def not malicious!
@MarvelousMadi13 Kind of you to give them grace. Many folks are slow to change, hoping some will yet surprise you!🌞
