Today, I was at a gay bar and asking a really convincing drag queen about her daily routine. I asked how she tucked her penis in. She responded, "Um, I'm a woman." I said, "Oh I'm sorry, are you pre-op or post-op?" She said, "No, I always have been and always will be a woman, asshole." FML

Thanksgiving
Questions about your love life, a burnt turkey and the cousin who knows everything: Thanksgiving, a contact sport.
Today, while I was out to eat, I was approached by the restaurant manager. He told me that while he respected my personal choices, his patrons didn't feel comfortable with someone who used to be a man using the women's restroom. He thought I was a transsexual. I am a naturally-born female. FML
Today, I asked a girl out. She replied, "Sorry, I'm suddenly a lesbian." FML
Today, I steeled my nerve, gritted my teeth, pulled my finger out, and asked our new coworker on a date. He looked at me weird, then said those four words, “But I’m not gay.” Five weeks we’ve worked together and all that time he thought I was a man. I’m a woman, born a woman, with a vagina. FML
Today, my doctor told me to take off my pants so she could do a checkup. When I took them off, she gasped. When I asked what was wrong, she said she was expecting something else. She thought I was a dude. FML
Today, I was complimented by a stranger, who said I looked great in my outfit. I thanked her, and she immediately gave me a fist-bump. I stared curiously, and she explained: she was arguing with her friends about whether I'm a man or a woman. The pitch of my voice was the answer. FML
Today, I had a job interview. When I got there, the lady interviewing me shook my hand and said, 'Hello, I'm gay.' I found this strange and I didn't know what to say, so I stated, 'Aw, it's OK, I support you.' She looked pretty offended, and I realized why when I found out that her name was Gaye. FML
Today, while shopping, a few giggling girls came up to me and asked why I was wearing a dress in public. Highly confused, I didn't answer. When they walked away laughing, I realized they thought I was a man. I'm a woman. FML
Today, a little girl came up to me and asked, "Are you a boy or a girl?" I said, "I'm a girl of course!" She walked away, looking dazed and saying, "Whoa." FML
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
Today, I was talking to a friend and bemoaning the fact that my new coworkers keep mixing up my gender. She looked at me critically and said, "Yeah, until you can grow a decent beard, people are going to keep thinking you're an intern or a butch lesbian." FML
Feel like sharing it with the other FML users?
Thanks, your FML was submitted, and will appear in the moderation queue soon!

Aren't those extremely personal questions to be asking? Could we get a transgender/transvestite to weigh in on this discussion?

People. STFU. Apparently it is a crime for a female to be at a gay bar. Like it was said earlier, lesbians are gay people. Also, it should BE acceptable for straight people to go to gay bars. Next, you don't start a conversation the way you did. Would you do the same thing with someone else, with different circumstances of course. You definitely deserved that one, assfuck.

What the hell is with people saying she shouldn't have been in a gay bar because she's a woman?! What, so there are no gay women now? This is going to be a massive surprise to all the gay women I know who go to gay bars. Gay doesn't just refer to homosexual men, it refers to homosexual women too. And even if she was heterosexual, like it matters? Pretty sure they allow all types into bars. Geez.

She's bluffing.

It'd be kinda ironic if the woman you said that to wound up posting her story on here too. I'm not saying you're completely free of blame here, but...for what reason would a possibly straight woman be doing at a gay bar for men? And this is just my perspective. Don't know if there are gay bars exclusively for men and women, but from how the story sounds, this was a gay bar exclusively for men.

#22 - I am, and always have been, a woman. And, my index finger is shorter than my ring finger. As is the case with my sister, my best friend, and a co-worker. I think you need to check your facts. Its not uncommon for women to go to gay bars (sometimes its nice to go with a gay friend, or just go out and not have drunk idiots hitting on you...), but I have never met a woman who does drag shows. Thats kind of missing the "drag" part. I personally know a couple drag queens I have worked with for different charity fund raisers- some identify as men, some as women, some pre-op, some post-op. Some tape, some tuck. They're generally very open about it. Its not something you generally come out and ASK, but I'm not completely sure this story is 100% truthful, in that somethings arent adding up.... but I guess its possible. Just dont ask next time. Wait for them to bring it up.

#114, there's no such thing as bars "exclusively for" one gender or another (unless you count certain strip joints). As long as you're over 21 (at least in the US), you can go to whatever bar you want.

dude doesnt matter if she was a he, she, et, pre-op, post-op, or whatever you just do not open that can of worms.
