Today, I was going through airport security. As my bags were being scanned, I was told that I was selected for extra searching. Right as the security guard was about to frisk me, he froze up and asked me, "You're a male, right?" I am, and I used to think that it was obvious. FML

Today, my friend and I wanted to get some alcohol (we're under 21). We went to a liquor store and asked a random guy to go in and buy us some vodka. After giving him $20, he said he had to go turn off his car, then he'd get us the drinks. He got in his car and drove off, with my $20. FML

Today, I went to a bar which has two stories. I was on the top floor and then went downstairs. As I was going down, I recognised a boy in a wheelchair and his friends trying to get him up. I helped and took the wheelchair. One of his friends decided it would be a good moment to steal my wallet. FML

I've been mistaken for a guy a couple of times. I've never been very feminine to begin with, but at one point I had very short hair. The man that I was hoping would soon be my boss walked in the room and the first thing he said was "guy or girl?" his wife had to answer for him, as I couldn't stop laughing long enough to tell him. It's all in how you take it. As a mechanic, I'm expecting that I will get much more of it, so why get upset? I just laugh it off and move on.
