    That being said. I devote little to no thought to the gender of the poster when I read forums, simply because I don't see why it should make one whit of difference.
    *snorts* it does when they post about modeling and then you say something about chicks and stuff.

    But then again I also didn't look to see who actually posted. I was in a hurry. Sorry Laddy! ^_^

    Doesn't happen here, for presumably obvious reasons, but I have been confused for a woman at various other places. Doesn't really bother me anymore.

    For some odd reason, customer service people sometimes think I'm female over the phone. I don't have anything close to a female voice! I've never been mistaken for a girl in person or over the Internet, though.

    I don't think I've ever been mistaken for a woman on the internet before. Although my old roommate made an account here once and she got banned because I guess somebody thought she was a second account

    I was, however, once mistaken for a woman in real life. Me and Sa­rah's closest group of friends has a thing called dress-up night, where we all crossdress before going out to have fun. One particularly drunk night, we decided to make ourselves look as convincing as possible, with makeup and wigs and everything. Apparently we succeeded, because on our way out of the bar & grill we were at, a guy stopped me and asked for my number. I don't know if he actually thought I was a woman or if he thought I was transgendered or something, but I gave him the White House phone number

    Sounds like a term of endearment, to me. I'm going to start calling you that from now on.

    It makes me think of "Miss Cloud" which kind of creeps me out a little, so I won't be calling you that

    I have never been mistaken for a girl as far as I know. Despite the somewhat unique nature of my screen name, I don't think it would really suit a female.

    Haha, no, I can't say that I am. I stopped using Demosthenes a long time ago, but in the last few years I started creating profiles for other sites here and there as demosthynes instead (the properly spelled name was already taken and I continued with the y for the sake of consistency).

    I have never been confused. Not that I know, that is.

    I do, however, often make this mistake. I still associate a member's avi with their gender at times, that leads to some confusion. If the person doesn't specify gender, I'm really at a loss unless I've seen that person around forever.

    I thought laddy was a girl and shion was a guy, just to mention this place.

    Before I joined this forum I was really active on another Final Fantasy forum for about two years. They always called me he/him and I decided not to correct them cause why not.

    They never figured it out.

    Wow, I never thought The Man could be male.

    I don't think I've ever been mistaken, as my nick and avatar are pretty much a giveaway.

    that counts for the online game(s)
