Hey…

I hope all of you are doing well…!

One of the funniest misunderstanding that I was a victim of was being mis-gendered…!


She’s a fellow writer and works hard each day, managing her life while taking care of her kid…!

But,

In her mind she already assigned me to be her female companion…! 😅


We had a conversation where she published a book and I stumbled across her Instagram page and bought one…!

And she assumed that I was a girl because my real name is something that can be used for both genders…!


To be honest,

She told me that she has a friend whose name is the same as mine and she’s a girl…!

And she spent years with her during her college and she assumed I might be someone from just like her female friend was who she made friends with…!


But,

At the end I made it very clear that I’m a dude who loves to write and would love to buy her newly published book which I got and read it to the last page,

And it helped me big time…!


I thought it was funny and how these simple misunderstandings can pop out of daily routine and make us remember them as funny times…!


That being said,

I am a dude IRL and I’m fond of reading and writing if someone was unaware of the fact…!


Cheers to the funny misunderstandings that bring some laughter into our lives 🥂

Love Waakiye 🤍
