What did the person who mistook me for a woman not care about with respect to me? What were they not considering about me that constitutes disrespect to me? If it’s not an annoying social background assumption then I genuinely don’t understand what’s so terrible about this.
Do you remember whoever-it-was that was talking about not having the kind of attachment to sexual identity that other people claimed? (She—I believe it was she—mentioned that she would be more likely to report but not as emotionally traumatized by rape.)
I think this is an inverse of this. Some people—me, for example—are unperturbed by being assigned the wrong gender. Not everyone.
