oops
a long LONG time ago when I used to frequent public chat rooms once in awhile I was talking to a friend of mine and an IM popped up - this person said "Are you horny?" I replied "I have a headache" and they wrote back "are you male or female?" (duh, I just said I had a headache, isn't it obvious I'm female?) I said "Neither" and they said "Wanna go to a private room?" lol...So on the internet it just doesn't matter I guess.
...and in case anyone's wondering, no I didn't go to a private room with them so I never did find out which (if any) was their gender either.
