People around here who adopt aliases should be required to attach a M or F label to their aliases so this sort of thing doesn't happen. The thread spent some time recently on the subject of attitudes towards women. I wonder why it matters what sex/gender we are, other than pronouns, of course. CR is not likely offended that you called him a her. I've never seen any sign of thin skin on him. Karen

>>I recall a moment early in Beltane, I think it was, where somebody was posting an appeal for smooches and I offered a big smooch and a wee bit more (nothing lewd!) thinking it was a woman (the alias sounded feminine to me) and Edwarda gently asked me whether I knew the person was a man. Oops! Not, or course, that I wouldn't have been happy to offer a smooch if I had known he was a man, no worries about that sort of lifestyle with ME, of course, but it's just nice to know up front. << I think the phrase you are looking for... "Not that's there's anything wrong with that!"
