Today, I was working at my job as a cashier, checking out an elderly woman's groceries. She was very nice, and we chatted for a couple minutes. Once she had paid, she leaned close to me and said, very politely, "I'm so so sorry that I mistook you for a girl at first, young man." I AM a girl. FML

She's an elderly lady. They get confused sometimes. Don't take it personally OP. If you don't get mistaken for a boy often, than you don't have anything to worry about.

Hey OP, maybe you should spend money, time and labour making yourself look more like the gender construct the western world has given you according to what genitals you were born with. But seriously, who cares, even if the elderly lady had 20/20 vision, androgyny is hot.

Ahahaha! F Your Life! But that was so funny! I don't think you could make that stuff up. :D

I've been mistaken for a boy before as well, so I know how that is. Like #1 said, if you don't get mistaken for a boy often, then I wouldn't worry.

Wow! try a little no, a lot of makeup!

well, well...another case of gender confusion. It happens to me quite often, too lawl; I have a voice that is a cross between a girl and a dorky little boy (no justin bieber jokes plz -_- good god...) and I also dress like a guy, but I also have feminine features, and I'm short and small xP soo.....ppl can't tell whether I'm a dude or a lady. just don't let it get to you xP
