Blood Letting

So I went to donate blood today and this lovely silly guy named Jonathan did my physical, drew my blood, etc.
Jonathan said, "This is a difficult question...what is your gender?"
I looked at him for at least 7 seconds, then laughed and said, "Female..."
I told him that that is probably an offensive question for people who look ambiguous. He said some people do get offended and won't answer him, but will say, "What do you think I am?" to which he simply replies, "It doesn't matter what I think, I need to hear you say it."
Aaaannyway, I have changed my last name since the last time I donated blood and I told Jonathan it was due to a sex change.
Also, did you know that you can legally change your date of birth? Neat, huh? I would do it if I were born on leap year/day.
I took cookies and a peanut butter chocolate bar. Best blood donation snack of my life.
