Ah, the way I recall this is that AS originally appeared as a woman.

Then these appeared:
Message 19377769

Then these tributes by AS to women:
Message 19449828
Message 19532856

Now I conducted a little private survey among about a dozen SI women on their impressions of AS's writing style. The universal opinion was that AS is female.

Apparently some of them (even a few women) think it's somehow demeaning to call a man a woman.
No. We calls it as we sees it. Were Margaret Thatcher on our ballot this time (or Barbara Bush or Sandra Day O'Connor), she'd have my vote.

One thing that's thrown me is insistence that many public figures on the right are secretly gay-- Ann Coulter, Limbaugh, etc. Bizarre.
And that you're right about. I find it puzzling. As you point out, it simply decreases AS's credibility.

I was asked by SI Admin once why I referred to AS as female. My answer was that I did not know the true facts; I was just going with what I regarded as the best facts availiable.

And I say E raised some excellent points. So did you.
