For cultural reasons, girls and men don't phrase their sentences the same. Usually, you'll start having a good idea of a poster's sex after reading enough of his or her posts. It's, obviously, not an exact science and mostly based on intuition.

I'm terrible for just assuming everyone is male. Makes for some strange surprises.

One of the people I used to talk to on the HIM forums years back turned out to be female. She sets herself as male on most things though, and acts quite masculine. But I've met her a few times irl, and would say she's definetly female. Or a good pretender

Meh, on here that's what I do, only know maybe two people on bakabt that are female(you being one of them).

wasn't a case of years. My bad, i shouldn't have said 'ages' more like a 'while.' i'd say something along the lines of 2-5 months i kept on assuming she was male. if it had been years that would have been totally stupid ::)

people have assumed i was female on games where i choose to play a female char cuz i think they are kinda cool :D

EDIT: as to how i know she was female i met her irl =P

I remember my ex boyfriend trying to get me into online gaming and telling me to set myself as male so I wouldn't get bugged.

Hum ho. Time to go and fetch my harddrive from the post office. Finally, moar space!

I had a friend pretend he was a girl in EQ and EQ2 to get free stuff from guys who thought he was a girl irl.

Unsurprisingly, that trick still works.

Yeah, the same ex posed as me once. I don't remember what we were playing but the guy who he was talking to wanted to set up house with him. xD

I was playing street fighter and left a match where this peep was pissing me off, then the guy started messaging me and i told him "You shouldn't be mean to girls, you big meanie." which resulted in a conversation where i had him thinking i was female (Since i was playing sakura+cammy it was alot more believable i guess). By the end he start throwing insults again and told me i was a lesbo :P To which i replied "Thats not an insult, being a lesbo would be fun." :D

I dunno... I haven't really been around here very long *shrug* so I dunno how one would really be able to figure out what I really am based on amount of source material... I just thought it strange that everyone assumed I was male when I've had to get used to the opposite for the last year or two... lol

Bakabt has something like a 4-1 ratio of guys to girls though. So that could be one of the reasons.

I got to the post office too late to get my parcel. :(

hate it when you go out of your way to accomplish something and at the end you've got nothing to show for it =/

I'll have to go in my dinner break at uni tomorrow. Which is a bugger as it's gonna eat into most of it.
