Why I am Always Mistaken?
It is not a single instance. It is not even twice or thrice. But more.. I am talking about my gender here folks. Everyone online, most of the blog buddies consider me as a man. Maybe it is in my wordings? I don't have any idea what is the real reason anyway. I got to ask them what made them think so. Because of the above fact, I decided to put some proof that indeed I am not someone who belongs to the male species. I cannot really fathom why I have been made into "male" in this blogosphere. It is either someone calls me Mike or something! Weird huh! And the most funny part? When I commented in one post that I have been using lip stick or my lip gloss flavor is strawberry, I was asked..."That means you are not a boy?". I only laughed like crazy alone at this notation.
A week back, when I was wandering with my thoughts and getting lost as I wander, an idea came up to my mind. I told myself, "what evidence can I show that I am not a man?". Then I ended up taking photos of my own lips with red paints to show that not too many men do it. So here they are, I am sharing with you, as well as to show all that I am not a man.However, since this is a personal post and written in a personal blog, I want the readers of my WebbieStuffs blog and I Love PhilippinesToo as well to know that I AM NOT A MAN!
21 additional ideas:
hahhahaha how funny that people do have these thoughts sometimes on the owner of a blog hahaha. i personally have one friend whom was mistaken as a girl almost all the time where else he's a HE hahaha
forgive me my dear, even i thought you were a man at first, not because you didn't show me some proof it is because of your blogs title it is not something like a woman's idea, [well to those whom i have just notice] everything is tooo boyish.. hehehe.. that was just a first impression when you first did share your idea with me.
but later on i have came to a thought that you are someone as pretty as i am.
hahaha! funny that people have mistaken you as a man!
anyways, wasn't around today coz kaiden and i had a movie date!
thanks for the comments!
take care!
Don't worry you are not the only one..With names like Wujijiangjun which means general Wu Ji in Chinese many on this other forum thought I was a man. I don't quite know why I thought you were a man either, maybe because you are so technically endowed and my seo skills are pretty crappy lol.
This is the first time I am on your blog. I think the problem is that its more male bloggers than female bloggers.
Side Note: Your lips are beautiful.
Very Clever, I remember having posted a comment as "Done it Man" and i liked the way you took off:) saying "Hey, I am not a Man!". Sorry for the Fauxpas. Can i call you Hey girl now.. hahaha.
It could be your style of writing which cause the confusion. I don't prejudge the blog author as I am usually more interested in his content and what he/she has to say.
And now the truth comes out here! So at least I have the idea now. It is then the way I write which sounds like a man huh! Well, I have to admit I don't write like a realwoman blogger around. Anyway, at last I have spread the awareness now and I do feel funny!
@joshua,
i am not alone then. I bet you really laugh at that when you read this post remembering your driend. ^^
@Nova,
You are right there, fellow pretty blogger! Ahaha..Napapatawa mo ko gurl! That's the spirit!
@Sheng,
Yup, i read that..so he wont feel jealous of other kids around going to school.
@yanjiaren,
But i used ROgue.. she is female... and even my profile image.. but someone told me that it is a "fantasy girl" and so i am a man with fantasy girl! ayayayayay!
@Kushmoney,
There are so many female bloggers as well... Maybe you were just not able to visit them but mostly, i have female blogger buddies. Or you also think they are males? Hahaha..
Oh, thanks for the side note. Blush blushy.
@Kaydee,
Hey you! You called me Mike once! That is why I made this post! :))
@jeflin,
I bet you are right. I have just the manly brush when I write.. I think.
You are dead right!
I had it so many times - thanks mate, thanks buddy... LOL
For some reason everyone who posted message to me ASSUMED that I'M A MAN.
Does it really concern me?I don't know.Any way we can create small sign and put it on our blogs?
thanks again! i love answering surveys!
btw, what's your name? ...if you don't mind.
hmmm... i ate some veggies but not those leafy ones... i tried too but i dont know.. its just that i can feel it when its inside my mouth...
that's fine, my whole family keeps telling me that when i ate veggies it would make u pretty.. sige lang the beauty is in the eye of the beholder man diba? hahahaha...
I think it is just something that peoples vocabularies have become accustomed to. For instance I could be talking to a group of friends and say something like "you guy's wanna catch a movie?" even though the majority of them may be female! I don't mean any disrespect I guess it's just habit you know?
This is amusing. But how come they thought of u as a man? I never thought that u were even once.
luv reading the comments!
got something for u...

maybe the way you talked on your posts sounded like male :D nice lips ;)
i've added this blog link too. see ya!
It's a compliment. Online, no one knows if you're a man or not. But people respect men more. So to assume you're a man is to show you respect. As well, you might be old, disabled, and "funny"; but we all assume you are young, healthy, and "normal". It takes time to get through to the real person online. And this is how we cope in the meantime.
hello! yeah, i'm thankful everything's finally done! kaya lang wala ng natira dito! hahaha!
we're leaving na on monday, via ams. wanna meet us there? we're staying there for about 7 hours. our flight from here arives there after 7am and the manila one will take off around 2pm.
not long now!
I never really thought about your gender...
Interesting post.
Yeah, also thought you were a guy because "webloglearner" sounds manly ;)
I think it's because the paradigm people have. that male usually fall in the computer-geek category of the society.
really, it's very rare in my place (Indonesia) to find a female gender weblogger that do what you do, especially when it comes to monetizing your blog. well, I do know some, and to count them I only need some fingers from my left hand.
