so my therapist misgenders me on purpose and uses my birthname she's been doing that since i had come out to her originally as nonbinary but then i told her i was a demiboy and she asked me "what's masculinity to you because anything society perceives as masculine is actually feminine and women rock like really what does a man even do?" and i basically said i had no answer because it's a social construct and for me to say masculinity is this anything would be wrong but i personally feel more comfortable identifying as a man and it make me feel more comfortable to present more fem because of it oddly enough as i posted in my last question i like femboys i admire them and i identify as one myself does that mean i'm not trans or that i can identify as male if i like femininity?
another thing, recently i had a session with her and she deadnamed me again then said "kai or whatever you come up with next" and it just irked me?? like it makes me feel really uncomfortable when people do it by accidently let alone on purpose... then she joked about it like that and it just felt so invalidating... 1 reply
