How do you recover from dysphoria after being misgendered in front of ur friends? (My professor was online and he never met me irl and didn’t know. I’m sure he’s a cool guy tho, it just was embarrassing and sucked ass.)

Unfortunately, happens to me all the time. To be honest the only thing you can really do is either correct him or just keep it pushin’ now if they (your friends) start doing the same then you definitely gotta have a convo with them.

We both corrected him, he kinda slipped past it, but I don’t wanna jump to conclusions and say he’s transphobic. I think maybe he was just super embarrassed, or perhaps a language barrier. He’s a nice guy but English isn’t his first language and he’s VERY energetic and jumps from topic to topic real fast.

Slipping past is a little shady, but you said he always does that so that may slide. I wouldn’t jump on him being trans phobic quite yet. maybe try emailing him. That way it’s a private conversation and at the very least he can Google Translate? If he still keeps doing it there really isn’t too much that can be done in that regard.
