I wonder what gender someone anonymous would be treated as, if a woman could say this without bad signals and a male couldn't.

I think an anonymous person would probably be assumed to be male. Fair? Maybe not, but the set of circumstances that resulted in that situation weren't really fair either.

One would think a feminist community would strive to avoid such assumptions, though. So I'm left wondering.
