    It sounds, you chose the commendation that I offered to women because it made you happy. Yes, exactly women love to be praised :D
    I don't like to step into others individual privacy, but would you like to explain more about what you hinted to?

    LOL.. That 'decorative circular triangle jellyfishy thingy' would only make sense to a gamer. That's me nailing my allegiance to the mast. ;)

    Well if you had been around our house yesterday, during the 'What Have You Done With My Eyeglasses' episode, you'd have seen a total reversal of the female/male emotional/rational paradigm, that's for sure...

    I did mistake too. It was obvious that he was a female but I haven't enough time to investigate that whether a member is male or female, while his name and avatar shows she is female.

    Just goes to show... you should never judge books/members by their covers/avatars. :D

    Yes. Women love to be praised in beauty, and men love to be admirable in power or character. :) but the desire of women to beauty and decorations is so intense. For example, men love gold and jewelry to make them more able but women love gold and jewelery to makes them more beautiful :)

    Although we all know that @minstrel is really a squirrel and @Lemex is a real wolf, right?

    And T and I just googled a picture of some couple who looked sufficiently photogenic, but really, we are actually just two manta rays.

    Well, they say it was @T.Trian's uncle Bobby Ray who killed the Crocodile Hunter, but I'm skeptical.

    Bobby is innocent! It was my other uncle, Billy Ray. He was always a bit touchy and the Crocodile Hunter didn't respect his personal space.

    The Crocodile Hunter never respected personal space, as my granny, the Grumpy Crocodile, can attest...

    not necessarily, i tend to use quite masculine forum names (my one here shows example to that) and my pen name - Zakira Salem, which i generally tend to sign off as Zaki with, could be seen as either masculine or feminine. some of us prefer to use names that we feel speak for us at a certain point in time (or space, whichever suits the person.)

    No. I didn't say a member of a forum use his real name but I opined he/she write his real gender and location.

    ChaosReigns, you told, your pen name is Zakaria Salem,but Zakaria is a masculine name? Of course this name is a favorite name for me because it is the name of a prophet. God has mentioned him seven times in Koran. Also Zakaria is the name of an olden medicine and scientist of Iran( about 600 years ago).
    However, I haven't heard a girl choose this name ( although as a pen name).

    i wont deny that Zakira is a masculine sounding name, but with the spelling as it is, it is a slight reshuffle of the name Zaraki, who was/is a character in the manga/anime series bleach.... and is no relation of the this muslim prophet. and that, it would probably be best advised if we leave the religious discussions out of the conversation from after this point.

    in a way, i chose the name specifically to keep people guessing a little... im very much someone who appreciates personal time as i do spending time with others.

    No, I didn't hint to him based on a religious conversation, but I just pointed that it is a favorite name for me. Also Zakaria is not a Muslim prophet, he was the husband of holly Mary's aunt. He is called in English " Zachariah".
    Meanwhile, you wrote :
    Is it correct in English? This part of sentence makes me confused.
    Also you didn't use capital letter in your comment repeatedly.

    Instead of us clogging up this thread with this kind of discussion. shall we leave it here? i understand your points, and ok that wasn't correct English, but it is how I speak, and people understand me well here in England.
