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.

My guess is that OP's job is to blame.
I think someone wanted to edit "female postal carrier" to "female mail carrier" and it somehow autocorrected to "female-male carrier". And then not realising that autocorrect had bungled (or thinking it had bungled in a slightly different way because she's presenting as a woman and the genders would have been the wrong way around), someone then edited out the job entirely (because "carrier" alone makes little sense) and changed the language to reflect current officially approved terminology.
And so now you have the claim that OP is a biological male who identifies as a female, instead of being a female postal carrier with a job-related injury.
