Are you often mistaken for being another gender than your own online?
I get it all the time. Playing chicks in games doesn't help either.

One time I made a second account at EoFF called Iri Valentine and posted photos of myself dressed up as a girl. I got a lot of positive comments let me tell you.
Don't be a drag, just be a queen. My motto, so yes.
Dunno. I don't imagine people think I'm male. But then, I could be completely wrong.
Doesn't happen to me, really. Having the real name Daniel and the online name BoB kind of gives away my gender pretty easily.
I can't say that's ever happened to me.
Yes, most newbies here assume by default that I am male, and some returning old-timers do as well. Happens a lot in MMOs as well because I prefer to play male characters.
I don't mind! :)
I actually always assumed you were a girl by default, not really sure why. :p
And yeah, normally when you get as creepy as me, people default to assume male. Apperently woman online aren't creepers or something. :p
I do this on purpose.
Yeah, I knew Pike was a girl too! When I joined she had a Twilight Sparkle set. I know that doesn't mean anything, but if you have MLP anything, I assume you are a woman.
Also, in response to OP:
Look at my username. People think I'm a dude aaaaall the time.
How many of you still think I'm Faris_the_guy in disguise?
I get mistaken for a guy sometimes :(.
I don't get mistaken for a girl, considering the username I use doesn't exactly shouts "Hey, I must be female!" Once, I used a Hatsune Miku avatar, and someone mistook me as being female! He even referred to me as "the lovely Miss Proto."
I get it sometimes since not everyone realizes I took the name Vivi from FFIX, or that Vivi was a dude. Doesn't happen that often, but I find it humorous when it does.
