<p>I suppose it’s natural to try and guess the sex of the other posters, but sometimes I’m surprised by the reality. Obvious screenames are easy, like ‘…mom’ for example. Some have neutral names and write with a style that is impossible to guess, however. Other are (fairly) obvious due to expressions and content.</p>
<p>So…if it’s not too personal, which are you?</p>
<p>Since I ask, I’ll volunteer first. </p>
<p>For the record: parent2noles = male</p>
<p>What do I sound like?</p>
<p>To me, female at first glance. But I will guess male as the name is apparently Belarusian. A nearly perfect example of what I’m talking about.</p>
<p>I’m sorry P2N, but your title is hopelessly non-PC. Following the lead of Cornell, you should provide 4 options: male, female, transgendered and other. (These were the options provided by Cornell on a form that my son was asked to fill out. We had no clue what “other” meant.)</p>
<p>Oops. Good point; my apologies in advance to any offended. :)</p>
<p>I am gender neutral (for purposes of this board only!) :D</p>
<p>^^You’re male.</p>
<p><em>bats eyes</em>

<p><em>ahem</em> there ya go! ~berurah</p>

I don’t know too many men who make such impassioned pleas on the subject of bidets…but then, this IS CC… ;)</p>
<p>So I’m wrong? See, it’s not easy without a detailed analysis of perhaps hundreds of posts. Had you pegged, b, when you discussed your kids and the pizza guy hitting on you (or something like that). But…you know vB pretty well…for a girl. :)</p>
<p>
Sexist pig. ;)</p>
<p>I knew I’d hear it for that! :)</p>
<p>Just a guess, but perhaps “other” meant to refer to someone who hasn’t completed a transgender process. Is this a housing form?</p>
<p>Hasn’t anyone read Jeffrey Eugenides’ Middlesex?</p>
<p>Can I be other?</p>
<p>In my world, Middlesex is a county.</p>
<p>“Is this a housing form?”</p>
<p>No, I think it was just a student opinion poll about some campus activity that had nothing at all to do with one’s sexual identity.</p>
<p>Nope, somemom. Got you pegged!</p>
<p>(This is just between us, though )</p>
<p>aries + athena = female; British (by way of Greece)</p>
<p>JHS, I’ve read Middlesex. It was an interesting, thought-provoking book.</p>
