Today, I went to Seattle with my mom to visit my pregnant sister, only to end up being dragged to a store to buy maternity clothes. The saleswoman apologized to me repeatedly for not having a lounge for the fathers, but congratulated me on the baby. I'm a girl. FML

Today, while shopping for clothes, I asked the assistant to recommend something for me. She took me to the maternity section. Thanks, but I'm not pregnant. FML

Today, my mother asked a woman at the clothing store we go to all the time when her baby was due. Turns out the woman isn't pregnant. FML

Today, I've been in my old hometown visiting because my sister is having her baby. I scheduled the trip a full week after her due date, and still no baby. We tried everything to start her labor. I had to go back home, and as soon as my plane landed, I got a text saying she just gave birth. FML

Today, I was at the airport to pick up my mother since my baby is due soon. As she arrived, I smiled wide and opened my arms for a hug, but she walked right by me. Apparently, being pregnant makes me unrecognizable. My husband and I had to tell it her was me, her own daughter. FML

Today, my pregnant wife and I got separated while out shopping. She ended up having meltdown and crying so hard the manager had to call me over the PA. FML

Today, I was grocery shopping with my older sister. An elderly couple passed, and the man pointed to my sister, saying, "She LOVES to eat." My sister is 7 months pregnant, and I had to spend the next hour comforting her as she bawled her eyes out because of an off-hand comment from a stranger. FML

Today, I went to the store with my 4-year-old daughter. While I was trying to change into tight jeans, which weren't completely on, my daughter opened the curtain and yelled, "It's the Mommy Show!" Everyone there heard her and saw me. FML

Today, I went shopping at a thrift store. I found a really cute top that fit me perfectly, so I bought it. Afterwards, I noticed the original tag was still on it. It read: "designed with your pregnancy in mind". It was a maternity top. FML

It's kinda funny, because my face could be considered that of a pretty girl or a handsome guy... Little kids always get confused, but older folks don't, so I must not have it as bad as you. Sorry.

To all the people saying OP needs to dress more femininely, the salesperson might have had bad eyesight, and/or just been a complete idiot. It's possible that the salesperson assumed that the person with the pregnant person was the father, and some guys wear make-up, wear pink, or have long hair, so it all doesn't make much difference really...

You know, one time doctors questioned Chuck Norris about his gender. He stared at them ferociously and gave them an add for a Total Gym.

Sounds dreadful. Time spent engaged in commerce is a waste. However, with how pointless all other activity is, you might as well fritter away your time on that. Even worse that you had to spend it with relatives. What a drag. As for the mistaken gender issue, I bet that depressed you. Reading about it certainly depressed me. Life. Don't talk to me about life.
