Often there is no indication of man/woman in the id shown. For me, I like a man's opinion as well as another woman's.

That's a great point! It's often hard to tell, and that may provide some really interesting insight into how we perceive / bias things... especially if our outlook changes once we discover the gender of the person... and if it's different than we expected! :D

AND -- I can butcher chickens but, can't say I enjoy it. Let's face it, it's a messy job! So anticipation is not good. Once it's going I just want to get it done! You want to see it? We can sure use help -- most of us -- come on down! :ya I'll be doing the deed in 2-3 months....
What kind of chickens will you be butchering?

I used to play World of Warcraft, and I remember how surprised other players would be when they found out I was 60. I sometimes think the relative anonymity of the internet is a good thing because so often we are biased by a person's appearance/age/gender etc and don't really talk to them or listen to what they have to say
