If you want a lesson, trans people, especially trans women, are regularly assumed to be engaged in deception when they present themselves as their identified gender to the world. Society expects trans people to effectively wear a flashing neon sign that reads "I AM TRANS", because blaming trans people is easier than examining why society believes others have the right to know about some one's past, some one's experiences, why they have the right to demand others to conform to their own expectations, even if the other person is a perfect stranger.

But I am a woman, so how can it be deceptive of me to present myself that way?
