Have you ever been mistaken for the opposite gender?

It's a common occurrence in many different manga genres a man so beautiful he is mistaken for a woman or a woman so boyish she is mistaken for a man. Of course in reality that's not always the case. A person's gender could be mistaken because their hair is too long or short.Maybe it's because a person style of clothing confuses people unintentionally. How often does this happen to people? Has this ever happened to you?
I guess reading too much manga gave me the idea for this thread. I thought it could be entertaining if people actually had experienced this kind of situation If this is a repeat thread sorry, I did a search and nothing came up.
Edit: Ah! My mistake in the title bothers me.

I have very long hair, and I have been mistaken for a girl so many times I cant remember, mostly in the bus, mostly from people looking at my back, Its so annoying and it gets me irritated so fast I just yell at them "IM A GUY!!"

I get mistaken as a guy so many times, I don't even correct them anymore. When someone calls me "sir?", I just look straight at them and reply with "yes?" XD It was annoying at first, but after a few years, you just get used to it and learn to laugh it off. People make mistakes. 🙂

not that I remember in real life (because I have insanely long hair and an extremely high-pitched voice -___-'') but on the internet it really happens often. Especially because I'm sometimes so tired I don't realize I'm referring to myself as a man when talking in other languages 🤣
Real Life - Never
On MU - 🤣

well...i'd like to think my mah doesn't have a deep voice...but idk, i dont think thats it.
i think its cause i was a lil younger, and my voice hadn't changed yet.
