So my paranoia of course likes to insist that everyone is secretly clocking me but pretending I pass just to fuck with me. I got a chance to test it last week when I met a friend-of-a-friend who doesn't know anything about me.

Me: Hey, wanna see a photo of me when I was younger?
FOF: Okay... woah, your hair's really short!
Me: Yeah, I, er, used to cut it like that...
FOF: Wow, you were quite the tomboy!
Friend: Less a tomboy, more like a boy.
FOF: (makes "WTF are you talking about" face) huh?? (looks again) ohhhhh!

And much laughter was had. So I guess I can safely continue to ignore the voice in my head.

Oh, and there was the time someone assumed I was non-binary but couldn't figure out which way. Serves me right for dressing masc that day I guess :3
