A single word

Someone wrote…

It’s funny how a single word can bash one’s self image across rocks. A casual “Ma’m” that took me minutes to realize was meant for me. Just when I thought I blended in with the other boys, and forgot about what I was. It’s as if the world has to include painful reminders to snap me back to reality each time.

What’s your experience?

And what are you thinking about gender right now?
