Unfiltered Story #169593

(People often grab my hair and mess with it in my school halls. I get lots of compliments on my shoulder length curly hair, which my friends love. My hair is always in a feminine style. On this particular day, my hair is down and I am wearing yoga pants, a comfortable t-shirt, and ballet flats. A kid behind me in the hallway begins to mess with my hair.)
Student: Pretty curls!
(I turn around to see if I know this boy, and to thank him for the compliment but ask him to stop touching my hair. Before I can, he blurts something out.)
Student: Oh, you’re a boy!
