Suggestion Display gender under avatar?

This is what I actually look like. It's tough having three arms and three heads.

 

That actually works quite well with my mental image. A quick head-band to pull all that blondness back and I can absolutely see you growing into a version of your avatar.

 

You know there's a picture of grown-up me on Twitter, right? I grew out of being blonde, for anyone who cares.

 

The picture on Twitter doesn't work for me. I prefer this one.

ETA: although the TwitPic might be okay if you added a headband...

 

I paid big money for a version of Siri that can translate clucking.

 

I'd be totally fine either way. If someone wants to know which gender I am, all they have to do is click on my avatar. How people address me doesn't make a iota difference to what I am

 

I am actually a female four-eyed owl.

 

I think this thread is good - honesty is hard, but it's important. We're all getting to know each other better, and... it's beautiful.

 

I'm so simple that when I joined this forum, I assumed you were a woman 'cause instead of a cock rooster there's a chicken in your avatar. Also, I think you talked about perfumes in some thread... But hey, you could've been a man and I would've made an ass out of myself with my ass-umptions.

I think I thought @Tenderiser was Rick from the Young Ones when I first saw her avatar.

 

Honestly, I now see @KaTrian as some kind of female Steve Irwin (much prettier) stroking an anaconda (not a euphemism).

 

I get the Trian's mixed up... they're both just sort of vague Nordic blurs to me.

 

Alas, I do not share your love or enthusiasm for the slithery, scaly anaconda. Snakes are beautiful from afar and scary up close. The anaconda mentioned in that eargasmic, complex masterpiece of a song by Nicki Minaj I quite enjoy, though.

If my avatar pic wasn't blurred, I'd look surprisingly a lot like Steve Irwin.

 

Oh, is it actually you in the pic? I tend to assume people's avatars aren't them, even when it's a human that matches their gender.

 

Yeah, apart from a short period of time when I had a colorful Snufkin avatar, I've had my own mug there.

 

Whoooooooo?

 

Meh. Having taken both Latin and French, that's way too second person singular objective for me.

 

My avatar is me before I was. Or part of me. Genetically, I mean.
It's a drawing my grandfather did of my grandmother, a hundred years ago when they were dating in high school.

 

I was thinking before you get an avatar it has a symbol of what gender you chose (or a question mark). Maybe you could like hover your mouse over a person's avatar and it reveals this again?

 

You can tell a person's gender by clicking their avatar!? That would've been so helpful to know . . .
I can't tell you how many times I've had to rewrite something because I didn't know whether the person I was addressing was a "he" or "she," and I was too embarrassed to guess wrong (mostly due to guessing a friend's gender wrong in a game . . . in front of their other friends . . . it was quite embarrassing though they thought it was hilarious).

I feel so alone without an avatar to confuse people. My brother's supposed to be drawing it, but it's taking him forever.

 

I'm just a dog learning the alphaet. Some letters still elude me.

 

I don't like pictures of myself and I haven't yet thought of an appropriate avatar.

 

I actually have a onesie that's quite like that. And I could just put my underwear on the outside

 

Now you HAVE to do it!

 

Done and done!
