Who here thinks that the author of the blog post is female?

Given this sentence -- "...one person who has repeatedly misgendered me" -- from the second paragraph, it might be that the sex/gender of the blog author is... complicated.

Aha! I think that sentence is why I assumed the author was female - I remembered that there was a reference to them being upset by something relating to their gender, so I pattern-matched that to "female feminist".

That's a heuristic to keep an eye on.
