    Edit: nevermind, didn't realise they all fell under the same umbrella

    No, the kitchen doesn't have internet where i'm from.

    The username "curious guy" brought it's own set of mistaken identity problems on chatrooms round about the time "curious" started to mean something else besides "just checking out this place"...

    I decided to change my username when every time I'd log in, gay men like flies to a shìte would ask "What are you curious about?"... :o

    Frequently here, I don't know why people think I'm a bloke.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 4,916 ✭✭✭shopaholic01

    I was the original shopaholic, you saying that's feminine, you saying you're sexist, huh?

    I wouldn't blame you. Last time I checked my prayer inbox was back in '67...

    Man they were groovy times.

    because I didn't make up a silly username, I never have any troubles with gender confusion

    No.. Bears are pretty masculine

    But pandas are the least masculine of the bears... :p

    On Boards yea. I was thought of as a woman for ages and some still make the mistake.

    Rejoice in the awareness of feeling stupid, for that’s how you end up learning new things. If you’re not aware you’re stupid, you probably are.



  • Closed Accounts Posts: 10,562 ✭✭✭✭Sunnyisland


    I can be really confused...


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 215 ✭✭Pensivepuca


    Only a few times. I have been called the wrong gender in real life though, most recent was a female friend introducting her boyfriend to the group of friends who thought I was male. To be fair I do not dress very female and short hair.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 22,905 ✭✭✭✭Handsome Bob


    Yup.


  • Posts: 50,630 ✭✭✭✭ [Deleted User]


    Yup.

    Shut up Lizzy.

    Only on boards.
    People have assumed I'm a guy, not sure if it's the name or how I come across?


  • Registered Users Posts: 5,818 ✭✭✭Lyaiera


    Everyone thinks I'm a girl and I don't know why :(

    Silly people. Daisy is a moo-cow's name. And you're wearing a straw hat with a flower in it.


  • Registered Users Posts: 889 ✭✭✭Bajingo


    Yes...i'm not a girl...I'm stuck with this username.


  • Moderators, Education Moderators Posts: 26,399 Mod ✭✭✭✭Peregrine


    Yeah apparently people on boards think I'm a girl all the time. Not even sure how :confused:
