Do you ever get mistaken for being gay? (family, friends, different)

I was accused and whispered about being a lesbian because I wasn't allowed to date until I was in high school...so I secretly dated every boy that would have me in middle school (dating back then was declaring it to my friends and saying 'hi' in the hallways). lol
I was also accused of being a lesbian by a past co-worker (who is a lesbian) because I didn't have a boyfriend and haven't had one for a long time. Rather than date every male co-worker to prove a point, I simply replied "That's Bull****." and got written up for cussing in front of customers.

Not asking you to stop. Keep on keeping on.
You know what's weird, when I was younger I'd often compare myself to women as much as men!
I mean I never wanted to be pretty or wear myself in a bow, but like, I guess I just wasn't as gender conscious, I'd just compared myself on anything to anyone. Like how attractive I was or something.
I've never felt like a woman in a man's body, but sometimes I do feel I can relate to women moreso than man. In other area's, I definitely take the so-called 'male' point of view, but I relate to women's sensitivity and that sort of thing.

Maybe because she wanted you to believe you were gay so she could have you for herself?

Do you feel balanced or do you feel you're struggling with striking that balance?
You've been more fortunate than I have. I had a girl at a past job who bellowed that I was gay to the high heavens just because she never saw a single black guy who dressed well, (job was a bank teller so you dress up ), talked in proper english mostly, and showered every day.
The real question is, how is it that she knows your (or anyone else's) showering schedule?

Well, your life's not over yet.
I'm pretty sure the whole hoards of 'soccer moms' driving SUV's is a somewhat recent phenomenon. How old are you?
