I can totally sympathize with you. Part of the issue is that most of our society is taught that women and men perform their gender in a very specific cookie cutter way, and that there is little room for evolution, or little room for a more fluid approach to gender performance. Its hard to comprehend that you are blowing someone's mind with what you wear or how you walk, or that you would even need to explain yourself for being you. Just remember the most important thing is that you feel comfortable and safe in your own body, and that you express your gender however you want to. After that, its just a matter of your own personality. Some androgynous women tend to use humor to help define themselves as women when they are mistaken as a man. Some come at it with aggressive political comments. And some are just silent and let people get it wrong to not create a scene. There is no right answer, you and your identity are only yours to defend. I have had friends that lift up their shirt to show their boobs, or when they are told they are in the wrong restroom they say "I can read". Some people even start a discussion about the fluidity of gender, or that no one HAS to subscribe to the conservative concept of the gender binary. I have taken to telling the TSA before I go into the x-ray machine that I'm a woman, because often times they mess up the computer by choosing "male" and then seeing my bound chest in the picture. There are soo many ways to do it, but my advice is to look inside yourself and say exactly what makes you feel safe and comfortable at the time. Good luck!

FUN FACT. Did you know that Jordan Casanova, Twitch, Paula Van Oppen and Kherington Payne all went to Dance Precisions, my studio? So did Jasmine Mason but she switched to Mather a year before she went on sytycd.
