Masking Gender

FenelonSpoke: ...someone was saying in another thread that I was lesbian and that I read "Gay Patriot" or call another woman "dear" proves it.

Yeah, the vast majority was just typical Moron joshing, but there were a few where it was hard to tell if they were serious.

Since some folks are absolutely persuaded that you are male, the lesbian thing must just be something you "identify as."

Funny thing, as I mentioned yesterday: some folks really don't "identify" online as m or f. Women, understandably, tend to mask more than men.

I learned 'way back in the pre-wwweb CompuServe forums to never assume... and sometimes not even to believe when they did identify as m or f... although usually, my "gendar" is pretty good.

Anyway, we're all just pixels in gray boxes here.
