Here is a real shocker; women do not get the same respect. My example: working as Rhonda there were meeting I had express an interest in attend thus having expertise in the area being discussed. Was I taken seriously and invited; NO.
That is not the only instance either...
Moreover, being my version of a woman socially is enjoyable. I get to be more outgoing, some would ever call flirtatious. There is so much variety in choosing a look for the day. Maybe age, or look, courtesy is shown in some situations which always makes me smile.
In the past, I have been accused of picking and choosing what social presence is best for the situation. That is correct. However, not so much today being perceived / seen as female most of the time. Doors are opened for me and I am waved to go ahead in lines, simply for being a woman. In some circles, chivalry still exist. I do not correct that perception and do "Enjoy the fun of being a girl".
Do not underestimate female advantage or the fun that can be had. Escape!
Tell us your experience?
Rhonda, I have asked myself the same question many times: Having been born a girl, would it be as much fun as being AMAB but presenting as a girl? Maybe just as fun, but certainly not as exhilarating! Hugs, Sally
ReplyDeletesounds like except in a business setting you are having a lot of fun. BUT you didn't mention men who take liberties with their hands . Their game plan seems to be 1-offer you a drink and then 2 open season It sure has been interesting being on the other side of the fence--emily
