Today, a stranger told me how proud he was that my boyfriend and I were so open with our sexuality. For the past three years, most strangers have thought we're a pair of gay men. I'm a woman. FML

Halloween
A failed costume, stolen candy and a very real scare: Halloween, the one night when fear is allowed.
Same thing different taste
Today, I was walking with my husband, holding hands, when a man with a rainbow shirt on came up to us. He said, "I'm so glad that gay men can go out in public without being embarassed nowdays!" He patted me on the back and walked away. I'm a woman. FML
The real me
Today, after three days of dating a boy I liked, he came out as gay on his Instagram. FML
Today, I found out that my friends were convinced that I was gay. I have known most of them for 3 plus years, they all thought my girlfriend was a special shopping partner. I found this out while announcing my engagement. FML
Today, after being out of the closet for over three years, I learned that some of my friends still don't believe me that I am really a lesbian. They still think I made the whole thing up because I can't get a man. FML
Dad jokes, part #23556
Today, I finally let my parents meet a boyfriend of mine for the first time ever. My dad mentioned how he was happy to finally meet him, because for the past 4 years he'd thought I was gay. FML
Today, someone very close to me came out of the closet. Normally I would fully support them, had we not just gotten married. FML
Great expectations
Today, the guy I’ve been hanging out with and crushing on told me we now know each other well enough to be completely open with each other. I was excited, thinking our mild flirtations would finally go further. He just wanted me to know he’s gay, and asked me if I knew any single guys for him. FML
Today, my daughter was telling everyone at her elementry school about my gay partner. Yes, I have a gay partner. He is my work partner and he happens to be gay. FML
Today, I found out everybody at work thinks I'm a lesbian because they thought my boyfriend was a girl. FML
This is me
Today, I introduced my girlfriend to my parents. My mother turned to me and said, "Wait you're actually gay? I thought you were just saying that to piss off your father." I came out to her when I was 16, and have confided in her about my past relationships. FML

Guys, please forgive me. I know that when I get pissed about people making fun of flat chests all the time, it's annoying. It just feels like a personal attack to me. But I have BDD and am going to therapy for it, so I'm trying to get help. Keep that in mind. I'm not normally like this, it's just that things have been worse than ever lately. I'm trying hard to help myself.

I'm sure boob size has something to do with it, but it would take a lot more than just that to look like a male. So, I guess op is a trap. Btw, apologies to mime. I'd bring cake, but it was a lie.

MaceFaceLOL 8
And it doesn't matter if they don't kill Jews its just impolite...it would be like saying "being gay is the new cancer" that would offend the hell out of some people have gone through cancer. And I feel like you actually posted grammer but it didn't look right so you rushed to google to see how you actually spell it. You then rushed back to FML and fixed it. And I don't correct people on FML to "get girls" I do it because I hate when people make easy mistakes. And you really shouldn't tell people how they should get girls unless you know from a first hand experience. F.Y.L
WolfLady 18
Well if you don't like people making easy mistakes why don't you know dont isn't a word? Yes when you change the contraction to do not we usually need to restructure the sentence a little to make it sound right ex: you think you know grammar, don't you? Would become you think you know grammar, do you not? Truth is you don't know grammar if you don't know dont isn't a word and you don't know how to properly change the contraction don't into do not.

Don't worry OP, androgyny is hot. If it bothers you terribly, you could wear a more traditionally "feminine" hairstyle or outfit, maybe. Alternately, you could just respond "Thanks, she and I have been together for X months," and just walk away. People shouldn't assume gender identity from appearance, and anyone who goes out of their way to compliment a couple on being gay has their own problems anyway. Don't sweat it. You are a beautiful person, and I hope you and your boyfriend have a happy life together.
downtime 13
25, How is it any different to complimenting someone for anything else? Do you also think saying "Thats a really nice dress" is also a problem? And what does gender identity have to do with anything? Its an observational mistake, one with minimal consequence. You don't know anything about the individual but assume they're a beautiful person, but you take issue with others assuming gender based on appearance while giving a compliment? Nice.

Hmm make your bf the women in the relationship... It's easier that way
OhHushDear 11
It's silly that people still call the relationship roles "man and woman." I have dated girls before, and when people see us together, they ask who the man is. It's irritating, we're both obviously female. And we're equal.
EvilLilCupcake 10
#66. I agree 110%
knaevery 17
Accidentally thumbed 66 down... Totally agree
The_Hitdude 12
Usually people say there is a "male female role" in gay relationships because one partner tends to act more masculine than the other. I'm daying this from talking to quite a few gay couples. Maybe not in your case, but in most others.
xXxIracebethxXx 14
#146 - No. If anything, homosexuals do not like being forced into the heterosexual society box (or HSB - that's what I call it) where people believe one is the man and the other is a woman. That just defeats the purpose of a homosexual relationship. Unless they, the homosexual couple, declare themselves as either the man or woman, then do not try to fit them into the HSB. It's disrespectful, IMO.
The_Hitdude 12
I'm only stating what I observe...no need to get touchy about it....-_-
JukeboxValkyrie 19
Perhaps try to appear a little more feminine or have him appear a little more masculine? But seriously, as long as you two are happy together, who cares what other people think?

OP is wearing her ovaries on the outside, like a boss!

If you wear your ovaries on the outside, I think they are called testicles...

Cake face? Also, I'm pretty sure you don't have to dress like a **** to look feminine.
xXxIracebethxXx 14
I didn't say you had to dress like a ****, I said "BETTER THAN dressing LIKE a girly ****..." Isn't that what most girls dress like anyway?Where I live, I see them everywhere. It's sad and disgusting.

This person just wanted to know how someone can mistake a woman for a man. Nothing to do with something. Being wrong with looking like a tomboy
jerseyboy732 16
You do realize the distinct possibility that if everyone thinks your a guy your boyfriend might be gay.

MerrikBarbarian 9
If bf has no interest in sex with her or only likes to go anal or at least doggy, and/or comments about how hot a guy is- then she should worry. Otherwise, guys can be feminine too. I've known done straight as arrow guys who were more girly then me- and I'm a femme lesbian so...
rabbittboi 18
#54 - I don't think you can use a guy only wanting to go anal as an indication of his sexuality. All the anal in heterosexual **** makes all the unimaginative "straight" guys think that's the only type of sex the "cool" boy sand girls are having.
