I don't think they do make that assumption. I know I don't. But if you don't know gender and call a poster here "he" you'll be right roughly 97% of the time.Teaparty is a woman. Funny how everyone assumes that someone any good must be a male.
Btw, when Norton was here visiting a few months ago, he said he thought Teaparty was probably the best technician here, overall, or at least one of the very best. I think I remember him referring to her as "him", though. He also said that Teaparty is the artist formerly known as "eminime". Can anyone confirm that? TIA, D
If you go to Teaparty's profile, click on Options under her name and there you'll see an option to check the name history. Eminime was a previous name for Teaparty, yes.
