when i read this i was thinking of this photo you posted and thinking "how could anyone think you were a boy "

I reckon some people must just speak without engaging their brain, or as someone else said maybe see you from behind.

I have tried to think of times i've had difficulty deciding when someone was male or female, and to be honest, there arent that many !! So i figure people who do this often (and it sounds like it does happen often from reading this thread ) either really do need glasses and arent wearing them (i'm at the age where i cant recognise colleagues at a distance so i know this is a possibilty) or maybe they are too lazy to actually look at whether they are talking to a guy or a girl
