What is it about my profile photo (the actual avatar you can see when I post -- I clarify because someone once seemed confused by that) that makes me look like a man?

    It looks like a blurry rat taking a dump in a beer mug...

    Since women don't post funny pictures as much as men do, that's why I'd assume you were a man...
  • Honestly, it just looks like a blur to me.

    This post was a dare and a joke, but I actually am glad you answered. Twice since I posted it, people have assumed I was male and I was confused by it. That makes sense, though.

    The story is that I was trying to get a shot of my kitten and she was looking really cute and as soon as I snapped, she took off and I thought it was funny.

    you can always count on me to be serious when I'm not supposed to be...and vice versa...

    She thinks she is.

    Taylor -- No problem! I actually did want to know, but I didn't think there would be a reasonable explanation for it.

    She is a tortoiseshell!

    And she is a slippery little thing. And she might be a chupacabra. I don't rule anything out.

    I see a kitty on the move and a pinkish looking background. I would have assumed woman

    I've changed my mind. She's a Rorschach print.

    I've been staring at that picture for weeks trying to figure out the configuration of her feet.

    Males have assumed on twitter that I am a guy, even when I've had a fairly obvious pic of myself up. It could be my username but it's like really... look at the picture!

    As for you, I don't think I ever really thought about your gender... I was too busy trying to figure out what your picture was.

    The photo doesn't work. It is too blurry. You have to guess what it is. If we knew what it was for certain, that might be different.

    I left my rainbows at home today, sorry.

    Music? My ipod has been playing Cake most of the day. I think it's trying to tell me to go to the gym.

    For some reason as a small image it looked like a monkey on a bike to me. I know it's nowhere near that. Was also one of those who thought you were a guy, until I went to your profile. I think it's the combo of a "monkey on bike" image and a nondescriptive user name.
