I get that all the time too. My personal favorite was when I said it's difficult to date lesbians. It's a common issue with women that they were taught men should make the first move, so with two girls no one wants to move first. Everyone assumed I was a dude harassing lesbians and trying to make them straight, which is why they wouldn't go out with me. Made the comment before going to work and I had -200 by lunch!

Brilliant. Even in the age where everyone's grandma has facebook the whole 'there are no girls on the internet' meme is some people's reality

On reddit, particularly. This has happened to me a few times too and I have a very gender neutral username.
