My brother in law's girlfriend seems to be having the same problem. She's become a teacher and people at the school have mistaken her for a student... an elementary school student!
She does look very, very young and I myself have seen her in a picture where I didn't recognize her and thought she was a 12 year old girl. I don't think she's too happy about it but there's not much she can do.
I'm 29 and most people think I'm about 19. I've been hit on by teenage boys and when I tell them my age, their reaction is hilarious.
Most comments you're getting are from people who simply don't believe how old you really are.And believe it or not, some think that telling someone they look so young is actually a compliment.
You're always going to come across these sort of comments. But you can help age up your appearance a bit to help not hear them as often. Don't know if you do already but wearing high heels and make up helps. A modern haircut can also help somewhat.
As for your voice, you can actually take voice lessons where you'll be taught how to deepen your voice. This way people won't mistaken you for a young girl over the phone. It's really amazing.
