This happened to me too so here's what I say - roll with it. I think if you look at it from the right angle, it's incredibly comforting to know that you don't have to talk and they're cool with it, even if it is a bit awkward.

CW - transphobiaI don't know what kind of store it is for you but it happened to me at a sandwich place, and if I had a bad experience somewhere else where I felt judged because of my voice it was really nice having a safe backup place to fall back to when I needed it.
