Have you ever mistaken someone here for another gender? Some people have names where you don't know if they are boy(?) or a girl (?)


Congratulations miss Mo :D


I hate you. I'm a guy! :mad2:

the title of my topic wasn't meant towrds you Mo... :love:

No. I am perfect in every way. Everyone is of neutral (neither male or female) gender in my head until I know for sure. Usually, I will check their profile if I want to know. People should get into the habit of doing that for me.

seph = Sephiroth = Guy.

That's how I work these things. If someone has a male character's name in their username, I generally assume they're a guy until I'm told otherwise. D=

sephxangel posed quite a problem, since Sephy is a guy, yet Angel is a 'girly' screen name. Eventually I decided to stop guessing and actually look at her profile. :D

I tend to associate gender with either the screen name or avatar of a member, though often it comes up in general conversation anyway. The best advice is, if you're not sure of a person's gender, look it up.

I think it was hooter who said:
"Man in avatar= Man
Woman in avatar= Woman
Cat in avatar= Cat with opposible thumbs"

At the time I had a database RedXII in my avatar so I was in the latter.

Agreed. I thought aeris2001x2 was a girl because of the name (Aeris = female) and avatar (a picture of Aeris), but it seems he was male.

Aren't Leeza and EternalShiva girls whereas Rainecloud is a guy?

People think I'm a guy fairly consistantly. And if someone's name is gender-neutral, most people will assume male.

Really? I can't imagine so. Probably because of the girl in your sig. But then again, you didn't always have that.

I just check the user profiles if in doubt. When I first joined I got mistaken for a guy a couple of times. :)

Levian
07-31-2004, 02:29 AM
Guy in avatar = guy
Girl in avatar = girl
, as mentined earlier.

Since I'm thinking like that, anime seems to make me think wrongly. When I see users with anime in their avatar or sig, I usually think "female" straight away. Japanese character tend to be quite feminine y'know.

People I've thought was the opposite gender:
Rainecloud.

I've been mistaken for being a girl like 1000000000000000000000 times. with 100000 of them by Nait.

zacks_clone I thought was male
sephexangel I REALLY thought was male
Mo-nercy I thought was female
Lindz I thought was female
Rainecloud I thought was male

I feel so decieved. :cry:

The only time I was ever mistaken for a girl was when I was in the animemusicvideos.org chat and some guy started hitting on me and i was like..."umm dude I'm a dude", yet he refuses to believe it and won't stop IMing me asking me about myself and what I enjoy doing.

aeris2001x2
08-01-2004, 06:57 AM
lol. with me everyone thinks i,m a girl at first but as ppl get 2 know me they work out by my personality that i,m male (well actually they dont since i have alot of girlish traits. i tend 2 give it away by refering to myself as a guy).

maybe i like 2 keep ppl guessing :p :eek:

i remember thinking theAbominatrix was male for the longest time.

People always think Im male at first here.....Something about my SN. :p
My aunt thought I was my brother on the phone the other day. The fact that my brother is my 17year old twin and therefore sounds nothing like me has nothing to do with it.

People always confuse my boyfriend to be a girl. People comment in the street, it gets really irritating although I can see where they come from. What with the longish hair, piercings and him being an inch taller than me. Ah well. I don't care. <3

I dont think of people online in terms of male or female unless I read their profiles or I can tell from their Screen name. FluffyKittyLoverSocks400032 is more likely to be female than XRockHardFootballPlayerX. Though you never know.

At first, I thought Kawaii Ryûkishi was a female, again because of the avatar and signature. I've heard many rumours, though, that he is in fact a male.

However, I'm having second doubts again. Recently, he has disappeared from the forum, which has lead me to believe he is actually a "sprite" like Bob from the show Reboot, and is currently lost in Cyber Space.

Either that, or he's spent the last month in a nudist colony.

Best way to treat ppl in forums is as u treat their characters in MMORPGS - Neuter, aka. Male. Once i got my ass kicked in Gundam Fed vs Zeon by a mysterious person on the other machine which turned out to b a chick. And a hot chick no less. :mad: But of course, i had assumed it was a guy. Just goes to show, you never know...

I have. Once, I went to the beach and there was this guy there who had double D's. Me and my sis thought it was woman with no shirt on but, then we relixed he was male. Since he wasn't wearing a shirt. :D But, it was scary :( .

I don't think I've ever been mistaken for a man on the internet. That might be because I'm making sure I use feminine-sounding nicknames.

Outside of the internet however... *sighs* You see, I have this reeeeeaaaaaaally ambiguous first name, Gaby. Usually, women that are called "Gaby" are actually named "Gabrielle/Gabriela/etc", and "Gaby" is actually their nickname. But in my case, it is my first name. People like telemarketters call at home and want to speak to "Mr. Bernier" because of that.

Oh, and as a kid, my mother had this thing about having me wear my hair short and forcing me to wear my older brother's old clothes, so of couse I was mistaken for a boy back then. :eep: I guess I should be thankful I'm not flat-chested; at least I'm not mistaken for a man because of my physical appearance anymore.
