#like my workplace trying to teach me a trans person what a lil transphobia is like. awww.

[sensazioneultra]

and before watching that film i was thinking (for the nth time, lately) about my workplace putting out my deadname for everyone to see and then telling me to my face that that'd help me "deal with actual mistreatment from the outside world". not kidding they literally tried to spin them basically outing me which wasn't intentional and could've been taken as a sign they need to do better into a positive thing that would help me deal with Real Transphobia in the future as if work wasn't a pretty fucking important part of my life that i need to be respected in too! AND as if i needed THEM to teach me about transphobia??????? like i swear the way this cis white woman said it it was like they had given me my first taste of transphobia ever GIRL I KNOW THIS SHIT I EXPERIENCE IT EVERY!!!! DAY!!!!!!! pissed me off so much

#it upset me so much at the time and it made going to work very difficult for a bit #then i guess i just. had to put it in the back of my mind if i wanted to be able to keep working as usual #and it did help that my coordinator was Actually supportive not like those in the h.r. or whatever it's called here lol #(ironic i know. they should know better. it's their fucking job) #so for a few months i didn't think about it but lately it's been on my mind again #it was bad... more than i let myself admit until not long ago #it didn't have disastrous consequences like on a concrete level like daily life at work didn't change #but it affected me deeply #like my workplace trying to teach me a trans person what a lil transphobia is like. awww. #fucked up lmao
