It may appear uneven, but bear in mind that women are (in general) not as moddy as men.

I think the real question being asked is whether being a mod is a good way to pick up chicks.

Must have been quite a Christmas. Perhaps if we remind her of her Latin grammar and then ask her nicely she’ll change to **twickstrix** (or **twixtwix** : a female trickster with a speech impediment, bearing candy).

I will give that proposal the consideration it deserves.

The OP needs to break it down further as we don’t how many are trapped in a body of the wrong gender. Could alter the whole ratio…

For instance, “G-Factor” is supposedly male. But he has a “g-factor”? Hmm…

It’s about four to one. But mind you, I’m speaking strictly for myself.

The “G” is for “gorilla.” At least half of the Moderators of the message board are Otherkin; I thought this was generally known? 😕
