1. People assume I'm stupid.
There was this guy in high school who said I was dumb. It did not take long for him to start struggling with math. I even tried to help him learn until he got pissed off saying I do not explain well. It turns out he failed math and then went into arts. I went into biology.
There was this girl in high school who said I was dumb. I had a friend who defended me. I had a friend who said, "Oh she's dumb? I think you better look in the mirror. I mean you are going to community college with bad grades. In contrast my friend is going to university with high grades. I should remind you that you failed a grade. Who's dumb?"
2. People assume I'm a child.
It has benefits. I get to go to parks without looking creepy. I can hand out candy without looking creepy. I mean I guess I can just do a lot without looking creepy. In this case I let them make assumptions.
It has disadvantages. I will probably always be carded for alcohol.
