I'd love to see a world where people could view gender in broader terms and not focus on it as being the primary launching point regarding how to communicate with other people. I don't see that happening anytime within my lifetime, though, and in fact I've seen quite a bit of evidence that there's even more strictures on gender identity than ever, which is sad.
I hope that your encounter with her had some lingering, positive impact, which it probably did, but I also know how painful those sorts of in-your-face confrontations might be for you.
