Last night I went to Walgreens to pick up some pharmaceutical items for my wife. As usual I had on lipstick and eye makeup. Other than that I was wearing a plain navy blue colored T-shirt, jean shorts, and men's sandals. I made no effort to raise the pitch of my voice but I have learned to soften it.

I was served by a new technician whom I never saw before. I said I was picking up items for <wife's name>. She gathered the items. Among the items was a package of Albuterol Sulfate used for respiration therapy. The tech asked me if the doctor showed me how to use the item. I told her it was for my wife and the tech gave me a look of surprise.

So I guess I no longer pass very well as a man.
