Forgive my first guess, then. The other, not so much.

Inaccurate guesses and poor reading comprehension seem to be dogging me. It is not like I didn’t address this very issue of gender/name when others weren’t sure in the threads you seem to be claiming to have read and drew your conclusion from . 😕

Maybe I didn’t say what you think you read. 😃

But hey have a good weekend, everyone! Tomorrow is another day.
