Its a holdover from gaming. Believe it or not a LOT of guys pick a female avatar to play online. Their reasoning is that that they dont want to look at mans .... all day.

Personally, I think that would be negated by other men hitting on you but to each their own I guess :)
 
And to be more on topic with the thread,guy/girl, doesn't matter I'm the person with a PV. (If someone somehow get's that reference, I will hug you!)

Army of Darkness, spoken by a male character who's full first name is Ashley, BTW.

Huh, my first post here and its about army of Darkness. I'm off to a weird start.

I'm used to gamers forums and I always automatically think it's a guy when I see a sexy female type avatar.

The thought of gender always crosses my mind, but I am a dirty old man after all.


Well, according to the CDC quite a few more men smoke than women.

21.6% of adult men
16.5% of adult women

Since it seems that most people take up vaping due to analog issues, it would follow statistically that more men are vapers and therefore more men than women would belong to the number one vaping forum on the web.

Gosh is i smart.


You ARE smart *wink*

I certainly was not trying to be the PC police as god KNOWS I am probably the least PC person out there. I finally put a pic up as I somehow feel like everyone behing the computer screen is assumed a guy. Hey, not bad for me, I was just mostly curious.

110 posts? Id say, meh......I am pretty excited with the new hobby, so I ask A LOT of questions. It will die down when my curiosity dies down......Now, where is my vape?

it's a lot like when you meet somone with a new baby. Your mind bounces back and forth between asking "What's HIS name?" and "What's HER name?" until you finally decide to ask "What name have you chosen?"
:confused::laugh:
BYW, I'm a man and my avitar is a pic of my female, one eyed cat named Fraya.

I like to refer to babies as IT. What is it's name. Probably offensive, but I don't have any it's, so I find it appropriate after calling to many he's, she's and vice versa. lol

Doesn't everyone know gender was a hetero-normative construct designed by the state to help regulate economic and social order from an already-prescribed social order!?

:blink: I'm sorry, I have a pea brain.

It can be difficult to tell gender from an avatar sometimes.

Yes, I'm a female.

No, that's not a picture of me. 8-o

Eek!

Well I'm a guy, I just occasionally scream like a girl (or so dale and Angel and a few others in the god does have a sense of humor thread tell me.) :D
