The best way to confront a person who has made an inappropriate joke about your gender identity is to remain calm and clear. When speaking, use "I" statements and stick to the facts—for example, expressing how their joke made you feel disrespected or uncomfortable. Avoid becoming emotional or making assumptions about their intentions. Use this as an opportunity to have a wider conversation about the importance of respecting people's gender identities.

The best way to confront a person who has made an inappropriate joke about your gender identity is to remain calm and explain why their joke was not appropriate. This can be done without making the situation worse by speaking firmly, but kindly, to stress the importance of respecting your identity. You can also provide educational resources if they are willing to learn more about gender and why what they said was insensitive.
