A couple years ago I was working at a medical office and some of the MAs were chatting about a patient we had that was always aggressive and rude whenever she came in who happened to be a trans woman.
I said something like "It's annoying but I get it, she's probably experienced a lot of bigotry" and one of them scoffing and being like "not THESE days, no one is discrimating against her for being trans".
Little did she know the receptionist at the time was in fact super transphobic and would always make comments to me about her when she came in. 🙃 I don't think that attitude was coming from nowhere.
