Man oh man, have I been micro-aggression-ed all of my life because 95% of the folks I’ve met have mispronounced my Germanic last name.

This is a case of another person looking for a reason to get mad at others.

Mine too. When I first met my husband, 40+ years ago, I took me a week or two to remember how to pronounce it. So, I give folks a break when they can’t say it once :)

Never once have I thought ‘help, I’m being micro-aggressed’.
