I had something like this when I was working retail during the pandemic.

Customer: Why are you wearing a mask???

M: It's policy. And I like having my face covered because I'm trans.

C: *visibly confused* ....what? Nobody else is wearing one.

M: Right, but I'm trans, so I like having the masculine parts of my face obscured by a mask.

C: ...wha- I don't care!?
