Everyone was performatively cordial....but being a trans person whose presentation (for now, but progressing forward rapidly) is up to the person to gender, I felt soooooo anxious and for good reason.
But yeah, the doorman aggressively brutalized me into a gender category I didn't ascribe to.....like almost yelled it at me.
And like.....the assistant manager used the wrong pronouns and the teller like....used a wrong gender reference that felt shoehorned.
It was weird and made me very very very uncomfortable.
So much so that I cashed my check and refuse to go there again.
