So was I, as my parents decided to make my full name Chris, not Christine.

The world seems determined to turn me into a man. I got placed in the boys' bracket in a tennis tournament as a teenager, in spite of my checking "Female" in the application. The organizer actually tried to blame ME for the error!

I was put into a double room with a man at ClubMed.

CVS continues to assume I'm a man and sends me emails to "Mr Raymond."

I get spam offering me hot babes to date.

A weird benefit is that when telemarketers call and ask for Mr Raymond I can honestly say there's no one by that name at this number.

Apparently, all-time great tennis player Chris Evert has been forgotten. I wonder if she had the same problems as a teen? 🤣
