should we have gender next to username
« on: September 21, 2014, 11:36:43 AM »
hey guys.

when LL people ask for advice the advice is given based on if they are a man or a woman.

although I don't agree with kama points and all the other options in the past I have found it helpful to have the gender icon.

this allows people to know without having to ask each time.

what do you guys think about this? do you think it is a god idea or a bad idea?

I voted yes. I think height is one of the view vanities that society puts pressure on men to be tall but some extremely short women do get discriminated against it as well.

Well this sound as a lame reason to me, it's like ignoring Gay's right because they are just 6%.. etc..
It's either will be gender Icon because it would help in whatever, or no gender Icon because it's not necessary ..  the decision should be made  regardless of whether they are  many or few  ladies  joining this forum

Completely useless.
Reason: You could always see the gender from mockup's or when people introduce themselves, Most people won't leave that out.
No point in doing this for the vast minority, I wouldn't mind tho.

My point was just that females face a lot less height discrimination than men and I really don't see why it's pointless. Almost every forum I'm on whether it be limb lengthening or not has the gender icon on the side.

I think Yes, It is necessily
Gay also have male physical body , Then we can refer him a man
Lesbian also have female body Then we can refer her a woman

That is very useful when they shared there experienced that new ll-er can compare effect after ll

Man compare with man
Woman compare with woman

I voted no.

We should include a box to check if you are male of female but an option not to discern it
