Today, I was at the store buying some feminine products. At the cash register, the clerk said to me "Dude, you know those are for girls right?" I am a 30 year old woman. FML

Halloween
A failed costume, stolen candy and a very real scare: Halloween, the one night when fear is allowed.
Today, I went to the store to pick up some feminine products. As I was paying, the male cashier looked at me sympathetically and asked if it was my girlfriend's time of the month. I'm a girl and was buying them for myself. 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 went to the library to bring back some books, I walked up to the counter and the librarian turned to me and said "What can I do for you young man?" I'm a girl. FML
Today, I went to the store to pick up some tampons. After waiting in line for about 10 minutes, the male cashier looked at me as I was leaving and said, "Have a nice… week!" FML
Today, the cashier at the local grocery store in my area said that I don't look a day over 40. I'm 28. FML
Today, I was at the supermarket checkout. I handed over my items, which included some tampons, tissues, and toilet roll. The security guard standing beside the cashier remarked loudly, "I'll be damned; she's flowing from every hole!" FML
Today, I was sitting in Walmart and I saw an attractive woman walking by. Being the single guy I am, I went up to her and asked if she needed help with carrying her groceries. She responded with "You know I'm a guy right?" FML
Today, my daughter got her first period, so I went and got some products for her, certain that I knew what was needed. The lady cashier took one look in my basket and sympathetically asked if it was my daughter's first period and if I wanted help, since I clearly had no idea what I was doing. 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

It's too bad that he mistook you for a man. But, really it's none of his business. Nice men go out and buy their women feminine hygiene products all the time. He's ignorant and just lonely because he doesn't have a girlfriend.

Women send their boyfriends/husbands out to get feminine hygiene products all the time, mostly to humiliate and embarrass them. If you've really been a bad boy, they'll send you back for exchanges. "Tell them I want the ones for extra heavy periods." You can be sure that's going out over the store intercom.

Actually they do. Once my dad went into the store to bye me some tampons, and the clerk said, "Uh, you know these are for girls, right?" and my dad said it was for his daughter. The clerk didn't believe him and said, "Mhm sure." It was so funny xD

I would've said, "yeah, you're right. They're not for my daughter. I just love the way they feel when I shove them up my ass at night and think of pretty little boy cashiers."

This thread is sickening. Who the hell is going to wear heels and a push-up bra to go to CVS to get tampons? I can't believe 75% of the posters hear think dressing up is the solution, rather than that cashiers shouldn't comment on purchases unless it's small talk.

OP, the cashier was obviously ******* with you...what was he, 16 years old? Whether you look like a she-male or not, there is not good reason for a cashier to say that. Was he afraid you were going to try and **** yourself with a tampon or douche your balls? I just can't see why, other than being a complete asshat, the cashier would make any statement other than "do you have a club card" and "here's your change, have a nice day".
