Make it work

By Anonymous - 23/10/2020 23:01 - United States - Georgetown

Today, I got my hair cut short, as it hasn’t been cut in well over a year and I was getting sick of dealing with it. I told the hairdresser I would probably look like a boy but she said it would look cute, and that she’d make sure it looks feminine. I loved how it came out, until the kid at CVS asked, “Can I help you sir?” FML

Today, I went for a checkup after having recently been fitted with dental implants. The oral surgeon I chose was supposedly the best in the area, but it turns out that he inserted the implants at the wrong angle. Now I have to have further surgery to correct it. FML

Today, after sending in my passport application for a trip to Paris, I got a letter from the state department saying despite them having my original birth certificate, I don't exist. Upon calling them, I was told that it only proves I'm a citizen, not that I exist. I pay taxes and have a mortgage. FML

Today, my little sister put on some black eyeliner on my eyes. About half an hour later, my eyes started to hurt. Eyeliner never hurt for me; so I went to the bathroom to check it out. My sister wasn't using eyeliner. It was a black watercolor pencil. Now I have black bits inside my eyes. FML

Today, I went to see the mechanic who'd just serviced my car, because it was still leaking cooling fluid. I started to explain the problem, but he stopped me and asked if I'd had the AC on. I said yes. He smiled and said lots people have this "problem" in summer. Did you know the AC releases fluid when you turn it off? I didn't. FML

Sorry to burst your bubble, but there really isn't a way around that. Women who still look feminine with short hair have really feminine faces mostly. It's always a risk to cut it short.

It’s not necessarily that the haircut doesn’t look feminine, it’s just most people make the assumption that only guys have short hair. I had a pixie cut (or some other short style like that) for 4-5 years, and I always got called sir. I hated it at first, but then I realized that it’s fun to see the person who said it panic when you speak and they realize you’re not a guy. Point is, don’t let other people keep you from doing what you want for yourself.

As a guy, i think this is hilarious. Its why i leave gender out of it and just say “excuse me” and make sure i see their face first before addressing them directly. Worked every time till i met someone that was pre-op trans. Turns out they ended up becoming a good friend of mine!

I'm a woman who is 6'0, has a deeper voice and likes to wear my hair short. I totally get it but in general it just is one of those things you have to deal with, because people are just weird about these things in general, even when you see a lot of women with short hair, people seeing someone who looks tomboyish and thinking they're a man is really common. It doesn't even mean that you look like a man.
