Do you sometimes end up saying the word, "He" when you're talking about a girl. And, "She" when you're talking about a guy? When that happens, what do you say in your mind?
I usually say that I'm very stupid and not really concentrating on my speech. |

only happens when i'm really tired. when i do, i think, "oh wait...he's a she.." or vice versa. and then i fill in the next sentence with something equally stupid but funny and then go back to sleep or something.

i do that with dogs. Except i refer to every dog as a 'she'. I've had female dogs all of my life, so I automatically refer to every other dog as a girl.

Yeah, I've done that before. More often I mispronounce/mix up names, though.
And I say that I'm tired and/or very special.
