Have you ever been mistaken for the opposite gender?

Nope. Got my deep voice pretty early, always had fairly broad shoulders, and until about the eighth grade I was really tall for my age (although I'm just average now). People thought I was a 15-16 year old kid when I was 12. It's weird though, now that I'm 18 I've heard everything from 16-28 O_O I think that has more to do with the way I dress though (I hope.... I don't wanna look like I'm that old 😢 )

That's cool. I like girls who talk like that, I feel much more comfertable being friends with them since I don't have to hide the fact that I'm a horny boy 🤣 Probably why my closest girl/friends are all tomboys to some extent.

I have. Several times. One of those times i was hit on by a guy. It was sort of awkward. Another time a guy commented on my lack of a butt. I presume he thought i was a girl and would have one. But most of the time people recognize their mistake quite fast when they see my face or hear my voice. I actually find it kind of entertaining that some guys think I'm a girl. Seeing as the only part of me that looks girl-like is my hair, and that's just because it's long.
I really should get an avatar

Hmm, I'm actually in the process of growing out my hair now. I'm still in the hats, well beanies, only phase but maybe that'll happen to me too. I'll be sure to report back here if it does 🤣

I have been mistaken to a boy few time's.
And i hate it!!!!
One time i was at fast food restaurant, cause hour free time of school and were heading to a hotel to visiting (School thing.).
There were coming two guy's, when we were leaving. They sitted on the table and i was leaving of the table and i bumped to the other guy.
And the guy said something to his friend, but i didn't hear what, but i heard that his friend said "Dude! That's A Girl!".
Have to say i don't wonder why he thought me as a guy, cause i wear rock styled cloth's and have short hair.
But it's not nice, when that happen's.

When I was young people often mistook me for a girl because I had a girlish voice, girlish eyes and a shy attitude.
Fortunately today things are different.
But I guess girls are easier to be mistaken for boys. If boys reach the puberty...there will be no way that they are being mistaken for girls (deep voice, beard).
face to face, no. but apparently i sound exactly the same on the phone as my 13-year-old brother 🤢

My friends have told me that I sound like a man on the phone. Not a boy, but a man. With a deep voice.
...I have no idea why, though.
I think I've only been mistaken for a guy once. Last week, this substitute teacher was taking role, and after marking my name, she said "Thank you, sir" instead of "Thank you, ma'am" 😐
I couldn't get my friend to stop laughing...
Love is so bad.

Physically? Never!!
Only my mentality. Many have said that I have the mentality of a horny, adolescent boy.
It made me proud, in an odd way.

All my childhood. Every summer, My nanny would make me get an ultra short boy haircut and I'd have to go to school like that.
What made it worse, my little brother had really long curly blond hair, so people would call him a girl and me a boy. It was ultra embarrassing on airplanes for on or the other depending on the length of our hair. We'd either get, Oh you two boys just call me if you need anything or Oh you two girls are adorable.
The weir thing is, now I don't mind having short hair (got a buzz cut like I'd always threatened to do in the summer) well actually I cut my hair and was forced to get a buzz cut because it was uneven -_- ; )
Now i'm kinda sensitive about it. Whenever someone says "you should grow your hair," I feel this huge anger towards them like , "Just leave me alone!!!!!"
slowly but surely, the photoshop skills are coming. Very slowly.

In RL, I used to be mistaken a lot and, I have to admit, I was quite enjoying it, since it could create funny situations or I could gain some advantages.
Recently, it seems that I look like my gender, finally. 😎
But some people might be mistaken by themselves, that’s a real story of one of my close friend’s younger brother.
There was a boy, who was told by his much older sisters that he was a girl; dressed like a girl, having girl’s toys – in short, raised as a cute small girl… One day, in the kindergarten, he got to know the cruel truth that he was not a girl. Crying, he came back home asking his sisters… Now, 15 years (or something like it ) later, the boy is much more girlish than a lot of girls around him.

No, I can't say I have. Apparently I have much too feminine features to look like a guy.
Though that hasn't stopped me from crossdressing before. Guys clothes are so comfy! 😛
