I once had a psychiatrist write that I was wearing “gender neutral clothing” in the sentence after stating I was “currently undergoing gender re-assignment from male to female”. I was wearing a pretty feminine sweater, skinny jeans and doc martens. It was hard not to see it as a dig at the fact I wasn’t wearing a dress or skirt, which is something that’s absolutely used to gatekeep trans women from transition related healthcare.

Could be that it was “bad” enough a doctor thought it could have something to do with the diagnosis.

Ehhh maybe. Sounds to me like remnants of boomer culture of somehow the way another person dresses is a personal affront to them.
