Today, three women came into my work and one was wearing a shirt with a rainbow that said, "We are everywhere". I had just gotten what it was referring to and when I greeted them I ended up saying "Hi gays!" instead of the standard "Hi guys". FML

Fall
Dead leaves, the first cold of the season and an umbrella flipped inside out: fall, the season of grace.
Today, I was shopping at a supermarket. As I was about to pay for my items, I noticed the cashier was very cute. Trying to be nice, I smiled. She smiled back and said, "Hello, how are you?" Instead of saying, "I'm good" or, "I'm okay", I said, "I'm gay". FML
Today, I had a job interview. When I got there, the lady interviewing me shook my hand and said, 'Hello, I'm gay.' I found this strange and I didn't know what to say, so I stated, 'Aw, it's OK, I support you.' She looked pretty offended, and I realized why when I found out that her name was Gaye. FML
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
Today, there was a new and extremely attractive girl at youth group, so I decided to introduce myself. Her reply was, "Wow, I've always wanted to meet a gay guy!" FML
Today, as two of my students walked into my classroom, I said, "Hi, ladies". One of them screamed at me: "Did you just assume my gender?!" FML
Today, a co-worker passed me a note with information about one of our cute, new co-workers I was interested in. Her report? Simple: "Lesbian. Try again. They're EVERYWHERE!" FML
Today, after I spaced out for 3 minutes, the guy in front of me asked if I was interested in him. I replied that I'm not gay. It turns out "he" was a woman, not a guy. FML
Today, I found out everybody at work thinks I'm a lesbian because they thought my boyfriend was a girl. FML
Today, I saw a lesbian couple walking through the mall. One of the ladies walked up to me in the middle of the busy mall and started screaming at me about how rude it is to stare, and how we are all equal- straight or not. I was only staring because I'm a lesbian too, and they were hot. 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
Feel like sharing it with the other FML users?

You wear a shirt that says that, you can't be offended by "Hey, gays!". It's a little funny. A little. :)

I live in SoCal - we refer to everyone here as "you guys". Just like in the south more than one person is "y'all". Guys doesn't always mean "male".

OP: Whoopsies. Commenters: Okay, people, this is getting ridiculous. I seriously hope the mods shut the comments of on this 'cause some of ya'll are being just plain nasty. Seriously. Name calling? What, are you all in third grade? This is supposed to be a "fun" site. I didn't come on here to see people getting ticked off at one another for being "OMG GAY". And as for the people responding to them - stop. You're not gonna get anywhere. If they have any backbone, people believe in what they believe in and will stick to their guns. F my life for not having anything better to do than read through these comments.

Freud - 1 OP - 0 35 - Your comment didn't even make sense. Did you read over what you wrote!? 46 - "you dont have the same rights? youre missing a few, but as a person youve got exactly the same rights as me. your life isnt that bad." That makes no sense. They can't get married and there are places where they can lose their jobs/homes because of their sexual preferences. Just because you have your eyes shut too tight to see it doesn't mean that the inequality doesn't exist.

@66 Yes and aside from a typo makes sense as it is a reply to #32.

I try to keep it light on here, but wow some of you are so blind to stuff.... (in the States) Sexuality is NOT a protected by the EEOC and it is not yet illegal to discriminate against someone because of their sexual orientation - including in the workforce, when applying for loans, anything. In order to marry, I would have to move to one of the few states that allows it and remain there, but still cannot be legally recognized federally - i.e. tax benefits. If my partner were dying in a hosptial room, I could be denied the right to be with her in her final moments because we cannot be married and thus afforded those same rights. Now tell me how I have the same rights as you do. Then tell me you are sick of hearing about my pride. as for the post - a funny slip up. Did they laugh?

i agree with #11, you don't see me walking around with a shirt that says "straight and proud of it", because frankly no one gives a crap.

@69 except that my Uncle who was the CEO of a relatively large sized New England company that will remain unnamed, recently had to step down from his position because he harrassed a gay guy at the workplace (talked to him with a mocking lisp once) and attempted to fire the same gay guy for reasons based on his sexual orientation. Yes my uncle is a jackass and deserves what happened to him. Guess what happened to THE POOOOOOR LITTLE HELPLESS GAY GUY. He got an OBSCENELY large amount of money when he sued the company. My uncle is now jobless because of this incident. Don't come up in here pretending to know what you are talking about, gay people can't get married in some states, but straight people can't sue for thousands of dollars by throwing the "omg HATE CRIME!" mentality around that so many minorities love.

well, in the state i live "hate crimes" aren't recognized. a guy named Sean got called a fag (by a guy he lent a cig to when asked) and punched in the face so hard that he broke all his facial bones. then he fell and hit his head on the curb and his brain ricocheted so forcefully that his brain became unattached to his brain stem. he died that same night. the guy that punched him called one of Sean's friends and told them that "That fag owes me $500 dollars for my broken hand" that man got only 3 years in prison for "accidental" man slaughter. Sean's organs save five people's lives.
