Yeah... I do get that a lot... Unfortunately I'm a "cutie" in a male sense of the term. Which is ugly compared against my mental picture of what I SHOULD be.
Maybe one day I'll be a cutie in a female sense... I'd rather be smokin though.
Facial hair... probably some facial surgeries... body hair... These are all problems I'm going to have to overcome before I can appear even remotely feminine. My body shape is somewhat reasonably feminine now, but that means very little against the hair and face shape.
Did you know that people gender you almost instantly and do so primarily by your facial structure? You don't even have to open your mouth and they will assume you male or female purely based on how your face looks.
Sometimes they'll change their assessment based on your actions and voice, but often times they'll just become confused. No matter what your genetic sex is or what your mental gender is, if your face appears masculine at all, you will be assumed to be male first, and usually people will just be confused if it comes out you're female after, but that "He's a boy!" reaction won't have gone away for most.
It really sucks when you think about that...
