I'm a female, but my licence was misprinted and says I'm a male. Will this prevent me from boarding when I have to present my ID to get my boarding pass?

@ahall18 my suggestion is to visit the TSA site. When one has lost their issued identification, TSA claims there are other ways to look up your identity. Possibly this might help you as well? Good luck!

Also allow some extra time for this interview - they may take your DL and laugh it off - if not you'll need to go through a discussion as posted by @Passenger1C and consider bringing any other supporting documents that could be helpful...copy of a birth certificate, maybe your old punched license with the correct gender, utility bill, etc.

I highly doubt TSA would even notice, they're looking for a name that matches the ticket, not gender.
@DancingDavidE, want to bet a big bowl of clam chowder?
Yes, allow a little extra time just in case and please let us know how it goes.

That's a great point - I'd just try it at first and see if they care. But maybe bring some of the backup materials just in case, and allow some extra time if there is a discussion.
As for the clam chowder, I enjoy the aroma and taste, but the creamy sauce is a no-no unless you were thinking Manhattan style.
If we meet at BWI, then I think a crab cake at O'Brycki's is the wager.
