krissy i dont think this will happen to you hun you look passable to me now so ffs could only improve the situation if it does it would have to be mannerism or voice imo or an idiot at the other end of it who gets lucky on a 50/50 guess.

Maybe on the phone or at the drive through.  Maybe you'll be standing in line minding your own business and someone walking up behind you will cheerily say, "I can help you at the other register, sir!"

Happens to natal women too.  Don't have unrealistic expectations and you'll be fine.

She does look stunning O_o Jessica you are foxy!

And for Krissy, there's no possible way that a bloke will be able to distinguish you by having FFS of your origins nor sheila's.

Unless the person knows you from the past then that's a little different. I saw a movie the other day with Guy Pearce about 2 drags and a transsexual who go to this show through australia.

Makes me kinda afraid to go to australia with someone who is read in 1 second flat. :) That's why I feel blessed I look pretty good and passable.

Anyways krissy you already look passable, but just like me you have some minor stuff to take care of. A lot of people tell me i dont need FFS, but certain angles reveal my bad stuff lol

Generally, not very excited.
Read my poll on the ftm area, like half of them passed, sometimes 100% before testosterone, as a guy.

I know girls sometimes being mistaken, some more than others.

The only time I or my GF have been sirred post FFS (or any time out for that matter) was when we were at a lesbian bar.  A waiter who knew our history came up to our table and said, "What would you gentlemen like?"  It was totally intentional.  She later defended herself by saying, "I don't know what you want to be called."  I suggested try looking at our presentation for a clue.

We know the owner and she apologized profusely.

Krissy, you're already very female looking.  I doubt you'll have any problems unless you get MFS (masculine facial surgery)  :D

When you judge others, you do not define them, you define yourself.

Just some outsider observations made over the years - take them or leave them as you wish:

Most people don't seem to get upset when they are called by the wrong title unless they are Doctors, primary teachers or university professors.   Try not to be too sensitive to it.  People make mistakes.  Just try to have a chuckle at their expense (they are the one making the mistake after all) and move on.  Don't take it too personally if it comes once from someone who works minimum wage - they are probably just counting the minutes until they are off the clock anyways.  ;)

I've noticed when you start to push it folks become defensive and will try and pick out a few traits to throw at you.  However if you just smile at them as if asking "did you just call me?" they will generally get embarrassed and then: not say anything!  Just in case you missed the slip-up. 

I was born male and present male still and I've been ma'am'ed several times by cashiers.  What it boils down to is that they aren't paying attention and say just what they are in the habit of saying. 

At a restaurant - allow the server one mistake.  It's when they do it a second time that it's no longer accidental - unless they cringe and/or try to correct themselves - you need to say something.

Hell even I've make this mistake!  At the end of a double shift I called a big black woman sir realized my mistake and apologized.  Luckily she laughed and asked if her new hair cut was really that bad (it was - but that's a story for another time).

Hope something in here helps.
