    Where you come out to someone, and they assume that if you're gay you want to be a girl, and if you're a lesbian, you wanna be a boy. My brother thinhks if you're a boy-ish lesbian you wanna be a guy, and vice versa for a femenine guy.

    I've encountered that notion a few times ("Why don't you just get surgery and become a girl, so you'll be normal?"), but never to my face. Always other people.

    Yeah, I've noticed some people seem to harbour that notion. Poor ignorant peeps. They're so in thrall to their ideas of gender conformity *shakes head*

    That’s hasn't happened to me, but this has! I told a straight guy that I was gay and he automatically thought I wanted him. And no I didn’t. That's what pisses me off.

    Yes, I've heard of that too.

    "So does that mean you think I'm hot?"
    "Don't flatter yourself."
