Today, a stranger told me how proud he was that my boyfriend and I were so open with our sexuality. For the past three years, most strangers have thought we are a pair of gay men. I am a woman. FML

Today, I was walking with my husband, holding hands, when a man with a rainbow shirt on came up to us. He said, "I'm so glad that gay men can go out in public without being embarassed nowdays!" He patted me on the back and walked away. I'm a woman. FML

Today, after being out of the closet for over three years, I learned that some of my friends still don't believe me that I am really a lesbian. They still think I made the whole thing up because I can't get a man. FML

Great expectations

Today, the guy I’ve been hanging out with and crushing on told me we now know each other well enough to be completely open with each other. I was excited, thinking our mild flirtations would finally go further. He just wanted me to know he’s gay, and asked me if I knew any single guys for him. FML

Today, I introduced my girlfriend to my parents. My mother turned to me and said, "Wait you're actually gay? I thought you were just saying that to piss off your father." I came out to her when I was 16, and have confided in her about my past relationships. FML

If it bothers you, start dressing like a woman (you must be androgynous if that many people think you're a man). Maybe grow out your hair, buy feminine clothes? It isn't hard.

I've had that happen to me several times because I dress in guy clothes. My response to them is always, "Look at the chest? Does it look like a guy's chest to you?"

Whenever someone says that to my friend, she just bends over to show her cleavage and screams "*******!". It's hilarious.

I can kinda relate! In the 1970's my husband had really long blonde hair & I had long brunette hair! From behind, we looked like 2 girls holding hands! LOL!!! Ha ha! I don't understand how a mistake like that can happen from the front, though! You either look mannish or he looks feminine! You need to do something about that! We wanna see a picture!!!
