It is a sincere question. And I suspect I'd actually respect either an answer that the emphasis on sex and gender drama is tiresome or that the extra attention is flattering and empowering.

EDIT: The edit to the parent changed the meaning of my response. I'm glad I looked back. I should have quoted.

To be clear, before editing my question was:

Is this comment intended as snark or is it a genuine question?

Sorry. I thought I edited it quickly enough that you would only see the edited question :). I certainly edited it before I saw your reply.

I certainly edited it, before I saw your reply.

Understood, I realize making the meaning of my reply too highly dependent on unquoted context makes the meaning my comments fragile. I'm surprised I forgot to quote, actually.
