People can lie about their gender, so by relying on a gender icon you might still get a surprise
Nice idea tho..

P.s cool avatar you got there..

I urge everyone to take another look at our Terms and Conditions, paying particular attention to the following statement:

2h.) Public Affection: Explicit or overt displays of affection towards other members seen by staff as being disruptive to the board are strictly forbidden. Doing so will result in removal of your post(s) and possible termination of your account.

Please keep this, and all of our other Terms and Conditions in mind when posting here at ATS.

Thank you for your time.

Good point made TheBorg.

I guess gender identification is of interest more in BTS than ATS.

With some its obvious what gender they are...others they´ll just have to ask.

yes, I did and deleted it within seconds.

The reason? I thought it a trite comment and not deserving to the question at hand.

Therefore I removed it.

Huh?

Some people seem to have been off in the Delta Quadrant and not in touch with certain events in BTS.

On a different note, ISTM, avatars come in two basic varieties; Sexy and Funny.

Many 'guys' want to see a cute avatar when they log onto their account so they choose females, like Bodrul does.

Some 'females' seem to want to see their favorite movie or TV star, and choose a male, like Shar does.

In fact, it kind of eludes me why a 'guy' would want an avatar of another guy, particularly something like a WWE wrasslin' star, but I guess there's no accounting for taste.

Funny kind of includes everything else. You have 'amusing' funny, or LOL funny, and even serio-funny that may be serious to the user, but funny (unintentional) to most everyone else.

I suppose you could add other basic types of avatars, such as 'Themes' (including landscapes or politics, etc.), or 'Sci-Fi'/Space/Science, since I've seen a lot of those here.

At any rate, though the subject of this thread doesn't offend me, my preference is to keep ATS as a meeting of minds.

2 cents.
