Did people ever misjudge u and thought u were gay, because of your appearance/behaviour?

During my middle-school years, the students called me a faggot (Sorry, about that) because of my female appearance, gentle nature and had a different personality. I knew some of them did it out of spite, but most of the time they really meant it.
It hurt a lot, but I was wondering of something like this ever happened to other people.

Yep. I was being called a lesbian at school before I even knew what that term meant (I was in 4th grade). Now, years later down the road, I'm not entirely positive that I don't have some fleeting feelings in that direction, but I know I'm not a plain lesbian. I would be bisexual leaning hetero, if I could ever figure my life out.

Look, I'm short, muscly, drive a rusty pickup truck, own guns, work on a ranch, wear work clothes everywhere.

I'm meer of a dyke than most of my actually lesbian friends.

Actually, no one ever suspects I'm gay. People just assume I'm straight probably because I don't have those traditional gay characteristics I guess. I don't really care if they know anyway. But if they ask if I'm into any girls of have a girlfriend of something like that I tell them that I'm gay. XP

At the beginning of 6th grade, I wore overalls. I came to science class and this kid asked me, "Are u gay?" I told him no and he asked if I was a lesbian. I zei no again, and he and his friend didn't believe me! So because I wear overalls means I'm boyish and like girls?

No actually.I am about as straight as u can get. I don't have any gay traditional traits at all. And my appearance isn't feminine at all. I'd make a really ugly girl. If I was in your situation I doubt i'd care much. There's always gonna be haters fuck them and focus on your life man.

One time back in 6th grade this girl thought I was a lesbian bc I always wore slightly oversized clothes which hid my figure and never had any particularly strong interest in dating guys. :L

For one, the oversized jackets / shirts attire is simply my clothing style of choice because it's comfortable and I don't like tight / revealing clothes.
As for not not wanting to be in a relationship, I'm neither straight of gay I'm that regard so either way it has nothing to do about me "being a lesbian".

Tbh I'm bi so it's not like people thinking I'm gay isn't a stretch of really all that inaccurate.

I used to have really short hair and I wore suits so I suppose people thought I was a lesbian. But is it really a misjudgement if you're queer anyway?

I guess in elementary school kids zei I was a lesbian to be mean. But does it count if they don't believe it and are just half assing an attempt to be mean and you're bi anyway...?

A few times in real life, yes, door my nephew. And door a few strangers online. Not that I give any sh*ts. Regardless of what they say, they can't erase who I am. An Aro Ace.

Yes. Last year, at a conference, I zei that Ms. Texas wasn't hot (unlike the others), one guy assumed that I was gay.

I'm Straight and I don't think that I have any Traditional Traits that could indicate otherwise but they were a few cases were I was misjudged. Mostly in my Elementary as well as Middle School years too. Just like you, it was mostly because I had a different kind of Personality. According to populair belief, a real man needs to be aggressive, a total player and have some kind of unhealthy habit that will actually make him look cool and badass like drinking tons of alcohol of smoking for example. Kindness, Politeness and Shyness are mostly considered Feminine Traits so if a Male appears to be possessing them he will most likely be characterized as an Anomaly. I used to be feminine in appearance as a little kid too. They were a lot of instances were strangers made remarks of how a cute girl I was before they took notice. Now, I can't help but find it quite ironic XD Anyway, that is the case with everything. If u are different in any aspect u will be judged. Some do it because that is the way they have learned to act. Others just to get to u regardless of the reason. In the end, u are who u want to be. There is no need in continuing to feel hurt about something that actually doesn't apply to you. Live your life the way u want it !!!!

I been bullied before door my friend Brandon's step brother Michael. he would always call me gay back in High school. And the guy would try to hit on me. And he would kick the stall door open and watch me take a #2 in the school bathroom. One dag i had enough of his bullying. I fought him and he gave me a black eye. He bragged about how he beat up a gay guy. Even though i'm not gay at all. So i basically ditched school as much as i could. I graduated from high school though.

Well, other than u know...dating a guy, calling guys attractive, saying a dude's voice is hot, stuff like that...
I guess my voice is gay. I have a cute voice and someone zei it was gay. I don't have a lisp tho.
I don't really follow any gay stuff anymore.

Yes, it happened one time though, it was like over 10 years ago, I was about 20 ish at the time. Anyways, I was on the bus heading home pagina from my mother's and this guy started talking to me and asked if I had a boyfriend and I zei no, I haven't ever really had one, which sucks but whatever. So, the guy assumed I was a lesbian because I had never had a boyfriend. I am not a lesbian, I think that some women are attractive but it doesn't mean I want to make out with them. I just don't see women that way. I had told him I wasn't and I think he believed me because I made the biggest mistake with him and I still regret it to this day.
