Female like that better with small tits.
A middle-aged British Lindsay would be more likely to be male IMO. I’m interested in names, so I’m aware that Lindsay is traditionally a male anglo name. However in the states, probably 90% of Lindsays are female (and under 35).
That’s true for the uk too - it is mostly a female name here, easily 90%, with more males in scotland.
This, sort of.
“Lindsay” with an A scans like the traditional male version of the name (I also picture a former mayor of NYC whose last name was Lindsay); but in my probably limited experience, “Lindsey” tends to be the spelling of the female name that has taken over in popularity, genderwise, in the past 20-30 years.
That said, I don’t personally know any Lindsays/Lindseys. The only male “Lindsay” I could think of offhand is Lindsay Buckingham, the guitiarist from the band Fleetwood Mac, and a Wikipedia cross-check reveals that he spells it “Lindsey” (d’oh!). As a female name, the only one I can think of is the fictional character Lindsey Neagle from The Simpsons.
How funny. I am a middle aged British female and my take is that a middle aged Lyndsay would be male but would pretty much have to come from Scotland. All the female Lyndsays I know (of) are younger. It may of course depend on where you think middle aged starts – and I’ve got to the stage where that’s a year or so older than me.
May I introduce you to an estate agent?
Well thanks, you’ve just ruined the world of Lindsays for me.
I voted male, given the “middle-aged and British” info, but lacking that I would have voted “female”.
Lindsay Lohan immediately springs to mind. Female.
I’ve never met a male Lindsay among the Brits over here. OTOH, I’ve never personally met a Lindsay of either gender my whole life.
You’re right on that, on both counts. That’s my name, and my nephew’s name is Nathaniel/Nate. Hrm…now I’m struggling to think of a guy with the nickname of Nat. I always associated it as sounding male, when I’m very much not so.
Nat King Cole?
Nat Turner
Nat Young. (Surfer)
My rule of thumb would be:
Born before 1960 - male
Born after 1960 - female
This is based on Australian and British (primarily Scottish, as it happens :)) experience.
There’s a tipping point for all these male->female names. I’d put Ashley at around 1970 and Shirley 1960 or so, but that’s just WAG-ing
I think you show your age in that you think of Lindsay as a last name that became a first name. Yeah, some people have that last name, but I never realized that was the derivation. Makes me wonder about other first names that are also last names, like Kelly.
I used to have a cousin named Lindsay. Actually, I probably still do. He is a male, so therefore that’s what I immediately imagine.
