Uh oh. Another terminological minefield ahead.

Just one comment so far:If anyone questions you on your gender, tell them you’re a woman. Or trans femme. Non binary. Really, just tell them what you are. Cut “identify” from your language.
Your gender identity is an “identity,” but it’s also who you are. Cis women don’t tell people they identify as women. They tell people they are women. Because they are.
If you get questioned on such a statement, guess what? You don’t owe anybody an explanation. “I’m a woman.” Leave it at that.
This PSA may not be as relevant as it was a few years ago, but transphobic dummies still make their stupid one joke about “identifying as an attack helicopter” often enough that to anyone who doesn’t know better, stating “I identify as..” is enough to make them question your identity.
Don’t give them that opening!
It seems so obvious in hindsight but i still needed to hear it. Makes so much sense~
