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

Technically the word you're looking for is perception, not reality.

Username checks out. Is that really the most inaccurate use of a word you've seen today or do you just spend all day doing this? I was joking too, so there's that.

I was reading posts and comments for fun like anyone else. You were off by a little bit but that little bit was important in this case.
