Uh oh Jamie, that was probably not so good.
I have to admit I laughed a little when I read your story, but I guess it might not have been that funny.
Girl friend goes "Oh, That explains it!"
It is the old dilemma, and the reason I have never gone out dressed as a girl on Halloween, well one of the reasons. I don't want to make a mockery of "being a woman", but if I do it as good as I am capable of, there is going to be a lot of raised eye brows!
Edit: I did actually dress as a girl for a costume party one time in my early twenties, it was held at a local bar and when I arrived, they refused to let me in because I was not wearing a costume!
It took a good bit of arguing, AND me finally pulling off my wig, before one of the bouncers suddenly got a really weird look on his face and went "Oh Shit! Sorry dude, I didn't realize .. "
It as a fun night, and I did not pay for a single drink!
