So, I have this friend who is a trans man. We'll call him Jester. Jester, similarly to a lot of trans people, has been suffering with gender dysphoria these past few days and has been venting to me abt this for quite some time now.

That was when, last week, as he was going through his usual vent I came up with this wild idea. I thought about bursting in the women's restroom's at the gym we attend. If they react in any way, that means the public eye does see him as a man. Not only does it affirm his identity, it affirms it in the funniest way possible. Genius!

I propose this idea to him and as expected he was so against it. After a few persuasion tactics, eventually he agreed as long as I walk inside with him. Deal.

Friday evening, we go to the gym per usual, work out a little until we see a group of five women walk into the restroom. I signal to him. He hesitates but eventually we follow them inside. Once we close the door behind us, the five women strike an expression of disgust and anger towards us. One of them says "Ew there's a man in here!". Man. Singular. That means one of us was the man, and the other was a woman. As three of them were approaching me to kick me out, I turn my head to look at Jester's look of disappointment, realizing that the world still views him as a woman despite all.

Then, at a sudden turn of events, they grab Jester by the shoulders and violently push him out of the restroom. Once they close the door they return to their usual chatter, meanwhile I'm still standing there, in the restroom contemplating what on earth just happened. Turns out, they thought, I, a cis man, was the woman...

Dang I'm sorry dude...

it says under review for me
