The day i was called a guy

I have never been a girly girl, I love super heroes, hate make up and my signature outfit is a batman t-shirt, jeans and black or purple high top converse. I only ever wear dresses or skirts on VERY special occasions (like seriously, my mum has paid me $5 to wear a dress to a party)

I have long curly brown hair, blue eyes and freckles. 

Got that image in your head? Good. 

Now lets imagine this person walking into a furniture store with their family. 

A young girl with blonde hair is wearing a dress, the mother is also wearing a dress, the father is wearing jeans and a t-shirt, then there's me, on this particular day, I was wearing a Batman hoodie and I was cold so the hood was on. we were looking at some furniture, I think we were looking for a desk or maybe some drawers on that day and the shop keeper said to me "Excuse me little man could you please open that drawer over there?" 

LITTLE MAN?

I'm sorry? Little Man?!?! 

Now, since a young child, I have always been "One of the boys" so I wasn't really offended, in fact i just laughed it off and I went along with it. But this is one story that I always look back on.
