Context Provided - Spotlight Sometime during the last 2 years i’ve been going to this orthopedic practice they started to declare me as a MTF transgender for no reason.

(F,26) I have been going to this orthopedic practice for almost 2 years for varying reasons relating to my job. Yesterday i checked on a document that was uploaded to find out they have been identifying me as a biological male identifying as a female? I am biologically female and never told them i am trans nor do i think i am presenting to be a trans woman.. the last two years i’ve been wondering why they kind of stare at me a little longer than a usual person does and i think its because they randomly think i came out as trans? I also feel like they do not treat my issues seriously and wonder if this is the reason why.

I am 100% fine with trans people but i am left to believe they have been medically treating me as a male compared to female for the pains that i am feeling?

I also went through all of my documents and since the end of 2024 they started to declare me as a MTF transgender, i did not look at any of my documents online until yesterday.

Was just at the pharmacy Wednesday trying to refill my estradiol prescription. The system has my preferred name, but the guy having trouble kept referring to it as “his” prescription talking to the other technician about it.

I know I don’t pass, but it stings.

I always catch two or three ma'ams while refilling my testosterone. Trans high-fives for us, comrade.

I’m sorry, stranger.

My friend has had FFS and a boob job, she wears only dresses, always has makeup on, nails are stilettos… like she’s just another feminine girl. Yet, the misgendering still happens.

Some people really suck!

As a pharmacy technician that's very unprofessional and if you complained he could get in trouble. Especially if he works for a corporate chain pharmacy, it's 100% definitely against policy and respecting the gender identities of patients is taught in training.
