^ I agree - but if any one's going to post a gender-specific remark they really ought to do their homework and at least check the profile first. However, the gender tag is optional in the profile.

That thought crossed my mind and that was the "bad idea" part of my idea. It just seems that 3 or 4 times in the last month we have had a lady in our presence mistaken for a dude, and that just seems ungentlemanly of us.

I don't know why, but it reminds me of the final scene of Some Like It Hot - only with genders reversed ...

^  There are at least two regular female posters on the forum who fit that description so there must be plenty more out there somewhere.

Good Lord! You just ruined my day and my night. Now, I'm feeling so depressed: no woman to share my taste for R.I.O., free jazz, zheul and other horrid musics...

Seriously, though, it does still happen to me to be mistaken for a dude... You see, "Raff" is not particularly gender-specific, so I am not surprised people don't immediately recognise I am a lady .
