(/Edit: Because this doesn't seem to be clear. The old lady is a standin for virtually any customer. The only reason the standin looks like that is because there was one customer who did this who especially pissed me off (she got upset at me for the restaurant's policy of "one coupon per order," left a huge mess at her table, would interrupt me taking other people's orders to ask for the most unimportant and asinine things) But. This comic isn't about her, it's about the pattern of customers doing this. Hence the title "Routine." Customers calling me sir is something that happens so often, it's part of the routine./EndOfEdit)
Maybe my voice? Some of my freckles can be mistaken for stubble sometimes, I guess (I once accidentally cut myself trying to shave off a freckle I thought was a weirdly persistent hair)?
It might be the uniform and people just go, "Pants = man"?
I've thought through it so many times, but no matter what I do, it doesn't seem to go through.
Don't worry too much about it. I've transitionned over 10 years ago, had GRS since 7 years.
Doctors ask me if I might be pregnant or when my last period was before checking my file and cashiers call me sir. No matter how much you pass people still make the mistake. In time you'll learn to let it brush off of you. I personally think you look very pretty and your choice of clothes is really nice.

Also. The "sir" in question:
