Women should be able to do everything that men do .... unless, of course, it feels "icky" or some other bullshit like that.
I think most of us share at least enough about who we are that our gender is evident. To truly have a conversation with someone we need to have some context about where they are coming from.
It tends to be assumed that people here are male
Yes, by announcing their gender, women are practically asking for rape threats. How dare they mention their gender? Who gave them that right*? Next thing you know, they'll think they have the right to walk around in any clothes they want and not get raped. Absurd. *John Madison, who wrote the text of the First Amendment to the US constitution.
It's especially appropriate that you chose a dwarf as your online identity, isn't it?
