Today, a man stopped me to tell me I was the most beautiful woman he'd seen all day. He promptly followed that up with: "Then again, you are the only woman I've seen today, so, it can only go up from here." FML

Today, I was helping out at my church. At lunchtime, a really cute guy my age walked over and told me I was pretty. I was flattered, until I turned around and saw his annoyed buddies handing him several dollar bills. 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 sick, and my voice was really low and raspy. A cute guy smiled at me and said hi, so I said hi too. He looked shocked and said, "Sorry bro, thought you were a girl." I am. FML

Today, I was downtown with my boyfriend around Noon when we walked past a few guys who shouted out to me "You're the most beautiful girl we've seen all day". My boyfriend's response was "It's still early." FML

That is so cute! I mean, c'mon, OP, even if you may have been insulted by it, it's still nice of him to say. :3

It's surprisingly easy to mistake someone's gender. Once met someone who was really athletic, lean, had fairly short hair, and no feminine features. I mentioned that he was "a really cute guy" Turns out it was a woman, and she wasn't very happy. A stupid mistake of mine. Nevertheless, it's nothing to be down about, many women are attracted to more feminine guys, myself included.

This reminds me of that one SpongeBob episode with the soda drink hat. Mr. Krabs tells SpongeBob, "That hat makes you look like a girl!" And SpongeBob replies, "Am I pretty girl Mr. Krabs?" "Umm, yeah, you're beautiful." XD Sorry for that totally random comment.

YDI for taking a compliment like the woman that the kid claimed you to be usually does (in that an awkward compliment gets spun wrong EVERY time). The kid was implying that you're attractive. Even if you don't wanna take the compliment this way, it's still your fault for letting something a kid says get to you. I got called a crayon once.
