I've been misgendered in Talk Roundup!

And so has another poster!

We're not all women Grin and I've entered my details pertaining to gender! Is there no way to check? Or just not use "her"?

I'm not terribly fussed, just thought I'd let you know with an eye catching title Wink

I think that entitles you to punch Justine in the face and get away with it or summat

I personally strongly suspect that SneakyGremlins is, in fact, male. That's as much vouching as I can do! 😂

You definitely caught our attention! Let us know if you need us to fix it.

Would be lovely if you could! I feel like a bother now Blush @EstherMumsnet

No bother. (Well I say that - someone else fixes it, not me. I'll pass it on to them...)

Me again! I don't think we can change it as the email has gone out. Would a 'must try harder' apology suffice this time?

Absolutely not! Misgendering is literal violence!

Why do MN ask us about our gender instead of our biological sex anyway?

Well, @EstherMumsnet, I haven't received a copy of talk roundup, so if you can fix that and grovel a bit (Wink) I'll let you off... Is there anything you can do to check next time?

Talk Roundup once referred to TiggyD as "she" as well. I don't think he noticed! 😂
