On this account, I can be who I want to be, which is someone who does not conform to gender stereotypes. But in real life, I don't really want to share my sexuality, for a variety of reasons. First, it is none of anyone's business, and two, I don't want it to hurt my career.
But sometimes I encounter a trans person who looks down on me or attacks me for being cisgender... except I am not cisgender, they just don't know it.
This puts me in a weird space. I have purposefully chosen to be vague about my gender identity in real life. Do I have to out myself to correct their error, or do I just take their abuse because they mistakenly think I am cis?
