Do people see your username...

[whtyger97]

and assume you are of the opposite sex?

I posted something on another board and someone referred to me as a he, which has happened before, because nothing about my name really has gender to it.

I was just curious, any intresting stories related to such confusion? or any other faulty assumptions made from your handle?

LOL, there have been quite a few, but not me.

 

[LucyStorm]

with a user name like mine, nope, hasn't happened. I did get mistaken for a fan of some cartoon characters once (Xmen?), I guess they have a character with my user name.

 

[browneyes]

Not that I'm aware of.

If anyone is confused though, I'm 100% ALL WOMAN.

 

[Rajah]

Yup, all the time. Probably because the character Rajah, from which I got my name, is male.

I was misidentified only once that I'm aware of but not because of my user name. It was because of my tagline: MIS-ter Garibaldi. Which really should be under the Daffy Duck picture and I wanted it to read "MIS-ter Garibaldi's 2nd-Most Favorite Thing in the Universe" but it wouldn't fit and there were no tag fairies then. Maybe a tag fairy will fix it for me now....... (If that ain't a blatant hint, I don't know WHAT is!)

No guy in his right mind would call himself MerryPoppins.
