Have you ever accidentally called a she a he or vice versa?

Question

I SWEAR I thought she was a guy, it was the mustache it really threw me off

and the short haircut

and the combat boots

all I said was excuse me sir this morning at the store, she had to have some built up testosterone cause she got really mad at me for my mistake

Answer 1

i made that mistake a lot back in school. i called the male teachers Mrs by mistake!

Answer 2

I dated a guy for a very short time that was just beautiful. He looked like Liv Tyler. I blame my bi curious tendencies on that one. He went into a restroom at a gas station one time and the girl behind the counter yelled that he was going into the wrong one--she was really embarrassed.

Answer 3

there was a 5th grader i met breifly....lets just say with the hair cut, the shirt(way to big black hoodie), and the fact that she was what some would call an 'extreamly late blomer"....i swear, she looked like a boy


then she came into the girls room......woops
never did get her name


oh yea, and last year and the year before, there was this girl at my testing sight, and i swear, she wore the same outfit EVERY SINGLE TIME...and sounded like a boy too....with a name like "tegan", its an EXTREAMNLY easy mistake

Answer 4

No, but it happens to me all the time. I have wicked short hair, don't wear makeup and I am more of a tomboy.

I never get mad. When people realize their mistake, they feel bad enough as it is.

Answer 5

There's that kid that's been in my school for the last 3 years. I learned just a month ago that it was a boy. I had been wondering for the last 3 years!!!

Answer 6

Tell her to wax that ****. hahaha. I call men Ma'am all the time at the deli. Just force of habit. Luck of the draw... one or the other comes out at random.

Answer 7

Yes sir!

Answer 8

Once yes, but no one, and I mean no one, could have told the difference. If it dresses like a guy, talks like a guy, acts like a guy, and does everything a guy would, you'd think it was a guy.

Answer 9

Yes I have. But it is generally with babies. Some mothers get upset when you think their girls are boys but not vice versa.

Answer 10

I have done it on the phone, but I dont think I have ever done it in person. Its hard to tell sometimes though. I just try to avoid calling them he or she.
