I think it's great that the staff member didn't just use her deadname and not bother to say anything. She acknowledged that she had to use the dead name but made sure to let her know she didn't recognise it as her *real* name
My favorite book was written for someone who transitioned and now I can't find nothing with the dead name, so I don't know if he still writes :(
Gee, I wonder how that works .... if we could change the name in the system and still have the records remain legally sound.... just posturing as a pharmacist
I was tearing up reading these, and I'm not even trans. It's too bad that it should be so abnormal to hear about people just showing common decency.
I remember my late grandma's reaction when a very good friend came out as trans. She just looked at him and went "Well, I knew you weren't a girl" and then continued with the new pronoun and name as if nothing had happened.
