C'mon, over 30 posts and not one hermaphrodite.

so far I am at 100% right on gender. You can tell my username and manner of expression choice of words , etc

My user name is my first name, last initial, and the number of my favorite athlete / public person. (Hint: as a kid I was a Brooklyn Dodger fan.)

Are you a boy or are you a girl? The question has been asked before. In 1965.

Are you serious?

Have you any idea what 91 lashes look like to a human's back?

( Initial lashes break the skin, subsequent lashes break through tissue and muscle… at 91 lashes, the torturer will be striking bone!)

Perhaps one of the most insensitive remarks I've yet to read?… (hoping you were unaware of their punishment.)

I had pink booties.

Why should it matter? You made assumptions without really knowing the facts..and on-line or in social media that dangerous! Does it matter if you are black, white or asian or whatever? In on-line chat rooms people become too close to people they really dont know....and this is how they get in trouble. WE share information on-line but is it truth, lies, or something in between. Would a post made on this board have more meaning if you knew it was from a male or female or does the post stand on its own and survive scruitiny!

I think over a period of time you learn which posters like to spread rumors, or tell 1/2 truths or just stir up the pot!! The Crispers monthly meetings do serve a purpose to put a face to a screen name, and we all have found other ways to meet and greet people from TOTV. I have welcomed and enjoyed all the people I have met from TOTV.....including graciegirl. But we should all remember NEVER believe anything is true simply because it is posted on TOTV or any other social network.....or moreso because you simply assume it.

Let me take a look. Male. I think.
