I really want to complain about this.
I was put in a class for a grade lower than mine. The students in that grade haven't met me until this year, because I'm a rather reserved and quiet guy. Actually, I need to mention that I'm a transgender guy here so you get what I'm saying.
My legal gender is listed as female, and so on the attendance roster, the teachers can see that! They believe I'm a girl. I'm not though. It's a good thing my legal name on the roster is gender neutral (well, at least with pronunciation).
Introduced myself to those classmates, you know. All good, since I try really hard to look and act like a dude. They referred to me with masculine pronouns (he/him/his) and as a guy without me even asking for that or coming out as transgender. Everything's going all great.
Until we have to do group work today, when the teacher pointed to me and a few students around me. She said, "You four girls will be in a group." I pretended I wasn't part of the group. She said my name and told me to get in a group. I acted confused, saying, "But you said girls?"
Damn. It was just embarrassing. I could not express to you guys how embarrassed I felt. People started treating me weird and asking me questions... ugh... |

That's.. kind of sad, dude.. Why do you live the transgender life? Did you choose it, or are you being forced to, or..? You don't have to answer any of those if they're too personal, but it's good to let things out. |

| TL;DR: I am transgender, female-to-male. I was in a class and unfamiliar with all the students. Every student there knew that I was a dude. The teacher thought I was a girl because the student roster said I was. She unknowingly outed me to the class. Students now treating me weird and making rude comments about it. |

| I don't think I made a conscious decision when I was six years old to be transgender all my life, no. Not being forced either, my parents aren't too accepting of this. It might sound crazy but I think it was just an inborn thing for me. I was never girly and I don't think I identified as a girl even once. |

| ProblemOfficers, sort of hard to explain. I didn't fail a grade or anything, it's just that I took different courses of science. I chose to go back two grades in science so that I could get higher-level science than I did before. |

That's funny, I consider myself a very feminine male but I'm not transgender. (I do have an attraction to men along with women, unsurprisingly.) I've heard stories of parents forcing children to live transgender lives because they didn't come out how they wanted, so I was a bit worried there.
Hope you get better buddy, and if you need to talk about anything else privately, I'm sure I could at least listen to you without terribly judging you. |

| Okay, I'll keep you on my friend's list and send PMs if I really need to, I guess. |

| No one is born a lady, Renegade. That doesn't make any sense. You don't call newborns "ladies", do you? Anyway, my neurological sex is male. Guess what's the most important organ in your body? Nope, it's not the genitals like you believe, but it's actually the brain! By golly, who would have known?! |

| I don't want to be known as a "girl" in my class. It makes me wince whenever I'm called "she". :( |
