Women aren't believed, are you a trans woman? If so it could be either that you're a woman or that you're trans.

(I hope not to misgender either but) bro, she knows. No need to mansplain it, read it again:

Many people just do not believe what trans people tell them. At all.

But is it because of being trans in general, or because of the direction of transition?
