When I do translations or get PMs I sometimes have a quick look at that user's profile.Call me crazy but I like to know whether they are male or female. What I find strange is that under gender instead of 'male' or 'female' they put 'other' or 'none'. Does anyone else find this a bit odd?

It is a bit strange but I can understand people not wanting others to know if they are male or female. Especially if they don't want to be spammed.

So, do you prefer spam from men or women??? Might I suggest if you don't want to be spammed, put a picture of yourself in a burka....worked wonders for me!

Post a picture of yourself and you will soon find out what spamming is
its unwanted/wanted email from complete strangers, depending on your outlook

I'm one of those who don't post gender. I really don't think it makes any difference what my gender is. In fact, I find it interesting when people speculate on my gender.

I'm not looking for romance and anything of that sort. Not posting one's gender sort of sends a signal...you know?

I never used to post my gender but now I do, otherwise you end up getting spam from males and females lol
its double the trouble and of course who is to say I post the correct gender

alameda, you remind me of the Saturday Night Live character...Pat...do you know the one I mean? Everyone was always trying to guess his/her gender and he/she would always leave little clues but nothing completely conclusive....it was hilarious!

You mean....Pat

Well I guess it certainly does give something to think about, if one is so inclined.....

Once I was interviewing someone by phone, and could not tell what gender they were. I had to make out a report on my interview, but couldn't ask what gender they were. I never did find out
