Melissa, you of the brutal truth (tm) ( the numbered one :-).
Some african american children did read me a few days ago, but from 90 feet away sideways!!!!!!
I don't think anything else but my nose (already operated on) would show from that angle.
My body type is very similar to Sharapova (not the face :-) except my thighs are more muscled and I have slightly more muscles on the shoulders. She's taller though (6 foot one vs 5 foot 11 1/2). My frame is small, I wear a 10 coat, 8 dress and pants.
At first, I guesed that it was my muscled shoulder and my height that got them pointing (it was a group of girls on the corner just out of school at the of the day). But, I think the most plausible thing is that someone noticed me during the transition and prior to rhino+brow bossing (type I) and recognized me when I passed by. That's actually more plausible than a straight read.
Inside a block away from my home there are 3 schools and 1200 grade school children, at least a third black, and this was the first time this happened!!
Anyway I see it, It really pissed me off!!!!
Even after FFS and being so thin that I'm 10 pounds away from being a size 6 model like waif, even a hint out of the gender norm can get me clocked!!!
In general, the african american community is not very tolerant of gays and anybody out of norms; that's my own experience from living in this very ethnic neighborhood all my life (25% black, 20% latino, 15% asians) and seeing how certain gays I knew where treated.
Maybe its just time I moved out of this neighborhood, although I've been comfortable here almost forever.
