So a couple of people might have seen a post I made in Small Victories a while back. It said that my university sent me a form and one of the questions was "does your gender identity match the gender you were assigned at birth?" It was so cool that I was in a place where I could be honest with myself and them and say no, but on a previous form I accidentally clicked that I wanted same gender flat mates rather than mixed gender and I couldn't change it so I was a little worried about what they'd do with the information I gave them. They went with the gender I was assigned at birth rather than my gender identity, so I'm in an all female flat here at uni (I moved in yesterday). Which is good, I suppose. I don't really pass without a binder and I don't want to order one until I've stopped losing weight, so I can continue to do that without awkward questions or coming out (I would have come out to male flat mates). And I can still express in a masculine way; my clothes, my mannerisms, everything except my body is something I've had my whole time here. But I'm a little sad, I guess. Like, why ask if it changes nothing, you know? Ugh. Maybe I'm just ranting because I'm already annoyed that a caught a cold. I just had to get something off my chest.
You could contact the uni I guess and ask them about it? Slight chance it may have even been a processing error, although it does seem pretty obvious and insensitive to just put you in an all-female house when you ticked your gender as male... I'm sure you should be able to contact someone about that. It really shouldn't matter in terms of 'passing' or not....
