Simple question. Title says it all.

I said small minority because there wasn’t an option for “I haven’t noticed any”. I’m sure some examples could be pointed out for me but on my own, nothing stands out.

In light of the current Pit thread, it’s either amusing or sad that two-thirds of the votes are currently for “I’m a dude”.

After giving this some thought, I don’t think this thread is a good idea. While I can instruct that people not get into a discussion about any specific posters, even well-intentioned people are likely to wind up indicating individuals by way of pointing to specific posts or threads.

I don’t think this is going to work, so I’m going to close it.
