I'm me-not him(her, actually)

As my sig says, I chaged my username. I got tired of poeple saying I was a guy because of my previous username, so I changed it. Plus I like Egypt. Anyone who can guess who used to be gets… um, something. Except for da’ cook, she knows me and knows my secret identity. ::looks suspiciously around SDMB:: AH! I see you… Get away from here cook!

Let’s see - that would be the invisible sig that doesn’t exist, I presume?

Well that’s easy…if you go to ATMB you find out that you were bobevilsquid…:smiley:

Anubis was male, too, though.

bobevilsquid, is that you??

(What do I get? (A winning lottery ticket?))

It does exist, I just didn’t want to post it so you wouldn’t know. But, since Odieman and Neidhart have correctly guessed who I used to be, I’m going to post it. And racinchikki, I don’t care that Anubis was male, to the rest of the Dopers that don’t know much about Egyptian Gods/mythology, they won’t make any assumption that I am a guy instead of what I am. That’s why I changed my username. And for those of you who got the question right, you get my respect.

[sigh]

Okay, raise your hand if you saw Anubis and thought “male.”

(raises hand)

raises paw

This is like (a male) getting a sex-change only to wake up to find you’re the still of the same sex but just with smaller set of tools…

In my experience, unless you have a name that is distinctly feminine (Yosemitebabe, andygirl, etc.), people will assume you’re male.

I’ve had people think that I’m a guy, and I think my SDMB name is gender-neutral.

Another gender-neutral name here – been poor folks out there reckoned I was male, when instead I come equipped with a whole different sort of tackle.

Dunno – Anubis is fairly gender-neutral to me. Takes care of the dead, true? Women in older cultures used to have to do that.

Anubis = male. Definitely. But for some reason I haven’t assumed you come equipped complete with jackal head. Strange, no? :wink:

Anubis definitely is a less male-sounding name than bobevilsquid, though (unless you went round telling everyone lots of times that you are a Roberta).

Ice Wolf sounds feminine to me, btw, Ice Wolf - I think it’s the ice part that does it. Just Wolf wouldn’t.

Fierra.
(Female. Who else remembers that “a” is the feminine ending in Latin?)

If I didn’t know better I’d have thought Arden Ranger and TVeblen were male.

::raises paw along with Cougarfang and Ethilrist::

Hey, remember, I’m named after a bear.
