I think it would be helpful because I wouldn't want people to get the wrong idea if in the middle of a conversation I asked for gender specifications

yeah like I totally tried to cyber with Adidasss thinking he was a girl, boy is my face red :o:

I'm both.

Just to clear that up ya know?

Your lucky it's all that was red.

im jesus lol

This sounds like a pedofiles dream.

Yeah, seriously. I think its kind of pointless too.

a pedofiles dream is seeing pictures in the member pic gal, and knowing that most of the boys and some girls here are underage... So why does knowing peoples 'sex' matter? a pedofile likes youngin's. we all kind of share that and most personal stuff on the forum so why not just have it there for everyone to see.

FAB idea!!!
 

^ Woah, hold on... - Why do you have to assume that it's a paedophile's dream to know the gender of members. :confused: Unsurprisingly, that never entered my mind. I'm normal.
No offence, but in my opinion, the only people who would think about such a thing must be paedophiles themselves.

Anyway, I think an icon with male/female is an excellent idea. I'm always mixing people up between male and female. And when I'm talking about one person with someone else I might refer to them as 'he', when in fact they're a 'she'. It's very confusing. Also, people knowing the gender of each other will be able to talk about things without offending each other. It's up to the person whether they choose to show people what gender they are, and how old they are. Please, can someone consider this??

Mhhh, good one, every forum I've been too has one, mostly next to the display name.
But it doesn't always work, people still think I'm a guy. :laughing:
