Oh, and, contrary to the popular belief, I'm not a guy. Surprise? :p
I know the screen name is misleading, but I liked it too much.




Be cool. Cause I'm freaking out Confused

I'm surprised. I had always read you as a guy.

Nice experiment you've run there, Norm. It's good to have one's own filters pointed out.

The internet assumes often that the person on the other side of the screen is a male, it is a slightly sexist thought due to many factors, namely that (1) Men are more attracted to technology and computers (2) Men are better English speakers (non natives) - At least in my country evidence has been shown and it's partly due to a higher number of English sources and child products marketed towards boys (3) In this case, atheism is widely associated with white males like Dawkins so it's harder to think of a female atheist - When I came here I assumed everybody was a male

I assumed Norm was female based firstly on screenname, secondly on language usage. There was nothing else involved in the guess.

I dunno... my avatar is always obviously female, and I don't think anyone would question a username like "rexbeccarox" being anything other than feminine... but that's me.

You're cute, Norm Smile

I assumed you were male, but only because of your username.

I prefer a well made dragon bone shield that's been honed to perfection.

I was just exposing some psychological subconscious assumptions many males make. I didn't say everyone did it. I too assumed for the username - And I never assumed Rexbecca was a man because of the username + picture

I mostly sneak, too.

But I carry a shield around for the simple purpose of getting my block skill up when I get the opportunity.

What would I do if it weren't for the big mud crabs . . . ?
