Have any of you ever incorrectly assumed the gender of a doper for some reason? Or for no reason at all? C’mon, fess up? And who was it?
For me (and there’s a good chance that I’m still wrong about one or more of these folks… if so, please correct me):
Shodan, SnoopyFan, and Gaudere are all female. I assumed they were male
Mangetout is male. I assumed he was female. (Ilsa Lund definitely sounds female, but is crafty enough to mention in his sig that he’s male)
Before she made it known, I assumed EddyTeddyFreddy was a guy.
I am probably on this list.
Oh yes, I forgot I misjudged your gender NurseCarmen.
Also I was taken a back by Bambi Hassenpfeffer’s gender.
Shodan is a girl?!?!?
A lot of people express confusion over my user name, or at least a lot of people have referred to me as him/her.
I’m a dude.
I’ve had several people guess wrong on my gender. 
Same here, twickster. 
Shodan is a girl???
Shodan is not a girl.
I am, of course, a guy. Intelligent and good looking to boot!
Oh, okay. Startled me for a second.
Shodan isn’t a guy? Can we have more confirmation of this? I was fairly sure s/he was male!
Alright, Shodan, time to come clean about that operation…
Actually, I did think Gaudere was a man!
I have no idea why this is, but the name Shirley Ujest always struck me as masculine. I know, I know, it’s got “Shirley” in it, but for some reason I always pictured a man; possibly because of the “Yes, and don’t call me Shirley” jokes from Airplane!.
Anyway, I was surprised to find out Shirley was female.

I’ve always assumed that Shirley was female. However, I also assumed that her name really was Shirley, mostly because I my name really is Bob.

I know! I always thought you were a girl until another Doper set me straight!
Well… you are a handsome woman!
And it would be easier to tell if you stopped wearing that uniform and cap…but you do have nice legs for it.
I think I assume most posters are male unless their name is very feminine. I’m wrong a lot.

Ack- shoo-ly

Shirley is also a man’s first name. A man named Shirley
But I am most assuredly a female type.
