Are you going to be extensively writing on issues of sex/gender with frequent references to personal experience? No? Then why should anyone care if you're male or female?
Not sure what relevance katydee's potential topics of conversation have on whether the username is a social norm violation (and it isn't a social norm violation standing on its own - although it does give the impression that the user is female).
So, my current username often reads as female. This is not intentional, and I am not female. Some on IRC have pointed out that this username could be considered misleading or deceptive. I have no real attachment to it, but I do have a few articles that I've been discussing and planning on posting here, and I think it would be confusing for others if I changed usernames, making it difficult for people to follow the genesis of certain ideas. However, I also don't want to mislead anybody.
Therefore, I pose the question to the community: is my current username deceptive or otherwise misleading, and should I change it?
