I had similar to that for much of my life as well.

Not sure to the degree people thought I was not normal....but they always saw me as a very caring person and such. A few people knew there was something different about me....and many thought I was gay lol.

I wasn't really trying to look any certain way when younger (teens) but i would constantly get waitresses and waiters saying "hello ladies" when they came up to me and my mom sitting at a table. And then I would be in a store and get little kids pointing and saying really loudly "mommy! is that a boy or a girl?".

When I was between 5 and 10 -- my great grandmother owned a beauty parlour and would cut my hair  when I visited.   This was before the age of stylist and NO men ever went to a beauty parlour.   So I was already some what not at ease, and then while cutting my hair she woulkd go on and on with the wavy little curls I had that I should have been a girl, and that kill would love to have mt curls.

By the time I reached my teens (1962) everybody already knew I was "different" but nobody knew exactly what the hell I was. By my late teens, I couldn't pass as a guy but nobody looked twice (except in a good way) as a girl.

When I was a teenager people thought I was a girl. I had hair down to my waist and wore girls jeans and tops. I got bullied a lot.

Once, in grade 8, a group of girls asked me if I was wearing panties.  I wasn't, so that was weird.  I've been mistaken for a girl ever since I grew my hair out cuz I'm little and effeminate.  My dad always made fun of me by calling me a girl whenever I didn't do well with sport things, tool things, or when I'd get upset.  My dad sure is a nice fellow.  Anyways, yeah, it happened a fair bit.  Oh, and now, as an adult for no reason at all I have the nickname "Prettiest Princess" and some of my friends call me "practically a girl" and they're not being mean or anything.  Which is weird sort of.  But yeah, that happens a lot.
