You were told that you were born a male.
In one photo you wear a beard.
You complain people use incorrect
pronouns thus misgendering you.
I only see a stunning woman.
Supposedly you were born female.
In one photo you wear makeup.
You complain people use incorrect
pronouns thus misgendering you.
But, I only see a handsome man.
Obviously, you were born neither.
You’ve burned all your childhood photos.
You complain people use incorrect
pronouns thus misgendering you.
I see only a charming human.
