Oooh.....(in the words of Monty Python in the movie Life of Brian) .... you, lucky, lucky, bast*rd!! I love being mistaken for a woman when dressed in drab. Unfortunately it's only ever happened to me 3 times in the past 5 years since I've been living in America. :(

I'm sorry, but I don 't have any sympathy for you at all ... only jealousy. :devil:

Here in Texas I get mistake part of half or all the time. The greeting here is "how ya'll doin? I'm sure that some of the time that ya'll means lady since I here it presented to GG's too! :heehee:

I would go back and kick his ass...

i had a post a few weeks ago about a day in the UP of michigan when i was called maam once, lady once and told that "this is the men's room!" yes three times in one day. quite a few other times as well,since i started growing my hair out. at 5' 4" they are all to willing to believe i am a woman.

Noname, I have been called Ma'am many times while out shopping in male mode. I think a lot of it is like others have said. People pick up on a few things and in stinks kick in as they open their mouth. I have also noticed that walking into some stores a SA may just barely catch a look at someone coming in and greet them to make them feel welcome. I do not think much of it even though I just consider myself a guy to dresses in femme clothes at times.

But I have also had the opposite happen. I have been out enfemme and had people call me sir. I just go about my business of what I am doing. Once I even had a guy get my attention to ask me some questions about what we were looking for as we were look at antiques. He kept calling me sir and I was standing there about 5 feet apart in a skirt, forms, feminine top, wig, makeup and heels. I actually think he was trying to get me to react. But I did not. I just answered his questions and then went back to looking. When we left he did have a confused look on his face.

I just tend to let people think what they want as it really does not matter to me. I know who I am and they can assume what ever they want. And if I am ma'amed while enfemme I just figure I am doing a decent job of blending or have some level of acceptance or tolerance from them.

I can only imagine how passable you are when you really do try.

Wow
