How I feel as a partner....
When my partner reacts to the assumptions with easy and even humor I relax. In general I feel protective of my sweeties feelings and wish them to be seen how they feel. I am not one that is good at in the moment corrections of other peoples behavior. I will give a touch that says "I know who you are" in the moment.

Beyond being assumed male by strangers or in passing... I support how the person wants to handle it.
