2. When a group challenges your gender

My advice:

• Keep your cool. If you are startled, recover to be more cool and relaxed. Your calmness and sense of self will help to control the conversation.
• Explain that you enjoy expressing yourself in this way.
• Don't feel compelled to go any further in a group setting. You are not compelled to say anything else.
