Today, I found out that my dad makes me wear dresses and skirts not because I look pretty in them, but because he was sick and tired of people asking him if I was a boy or a girl. FML

Fall
Dead leaves, the first cold of the season and an umbrella flipped inside out: fall, the season of grace.
Today, my dad decided that he shouldn't have to wear clothes in the privacy of his own home. FML
Today, one of my dad's work friends came over. As he was leaving, he complimented my dad on having three "strapping young boys." I informed him that I'm a girl, and I have a hormone imbalance that causes me to have a lot of hair and a deep voice. I guess my dress didn't give him a clue. FML
Today, my father decided to "prepare" me for the real world by telling me that I'm ugly. FML
Today, my dad has apparently decided that it's too much of a bother to put clothes on when he gets out of bed. He's been walking around in his tighty-whiteys for hours now. FML
Today, my dad came to pick me up. It would have been nicer if he'd had his clothes on. 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, my dad finally told me why he never paid child support to my mom when he was supposed to for the last ten years. His reason? Because I'm a girl and I wasn't that important. FML
Today, while shopping, my dad asked me to walk further away from him, saying I was cramping his style in front of all the chicks there. FML
Today, my 16-year-old son convinced my 14-year-old daughter that she wasn't allowed to use the ladies bathroom at the shopping centre, because she wasn't wearing a dress like the girl on the sign. He told her girls in pants always used the other one. She believed him. This is my legacy. FML
Today, I asked my parents if the outfit I was wearing made me look fat. My mom looked at me and paused for a while; my dad said, "Honey, that outfit doesn't make you look fat. Your fat makes you look fat." FML
Feel like sharing it with the other FML users?
Thanks, your FML was submitted, and will appear in the moderation queue soon!

Isn't it a little bit harsh to tell OP that she doesn't act like a girl, whilst you absolutely don't know her? And now I wonder, what is 'acting like a girl' actually? Talking about your period? Wear stilleto's? Constantly giggling? What if OP likes to be a tomboy? Or what if she just looks manly? I think she has the right to complain, it's obvious that she never knew she looked unisex, and I guess it's not nice to discover.

I know how you feel OP. It's not too fun when people you don't know talk to your parent referring to you as he, him, your son, etc.

Once you get over being offended, confusing people about your gender can be amusing. I wear a fair amount of eye make-up, but almost no foundation (with iffy skin), and have short hair. People don't seem to care most of the time, but I have to wear a (rather baggy) vest at work and I'm an A cup so I don't show at all. I also have to wear a collared shirt. I have no piercings or jewellery. I get a lot of confused people who mumble or mutter their gender identifiers when they have to refer to me (confusion about this seems more common in older people). I used to be a touch offended but now I realize that they just can't spot any of their usual gender identifiers- and can't tell when people are wearing makeup. This is especially amusing considering my recorded voice is hella high pitched. People are just too lazy to think it through, they would rather have visual, simple identifiers, which really aren't necessary at all.
