But it is necessary. If you want your image to show up.

Oh, and off topic... Is gender bending here just a thing that everyone does or something? I mean, seriously. You never know who is and more people do it than you'd think.

I find it also peculiar that some people, every so often change their profile gender. Not uncommon. People should just stick to one.

I figured I'd ask here since everyone appears to be here at the moment.

too bad I deleted google chrome over safari (because just prettier imo) because I would've loved that extension.

Totally natural, we shall survive yet another four years (We'll more than likely grow in debt but at least we won't wage a gazillion new pointless wars so yeah ;-;)

It's actually quite funny xD
This is a forum after all, being serious about every single detail doesn't exactly help in the point of having fun u_u

The addon I have I downloaded from Imgur's site, so it would be faster to search there than the google store.

Also @genderbending: I agree Ice Car. :( It is really common on PC and I'm not a fan. I find it kinda mean to mess with peoples' heads like that unless you really feel like your gender changes regularly.

[Ice Car]

Well, I know MidnightShine, Harlequin, Hikari, and myself are such people. And those are only the people I know. I thought I was unique alongside Hikari but NOPE, WRONG

[Frostweaver]

Well grabbed the imgur firefox add-on instead with all the DCC nagging about it XD;

As for gender-bending well depends on how people play up a different persona for their online/PC life compare to wherever else they go. To be honest, I don't really associate a PCer's gender to their gender tag as much as a male/female avatar XD; The picture is way more... catchy in the association game than the gender field specification.

[Livewire]

Yeah, not a fan of genderbending. It's obnoxious. :/

Obama wins Virginia:

Aha, I'm glad we both agree on this. Indisputable topic.

I really don't care about genderbending because I don't really care about people's gender unless they tell me so. Genderbend all you like.

[Ice Car]

I only picked it up because I pretty much only use Female avatars and have girly themes. If I adjusted my posting style to be less boyish that would be good. By boyish I mean serious, cynical, *******ish, etc.

See that annoys me because...I have never once taken "female" out of my gender on PC. I chose female because I'm a female and would like to be referred to with female pronouns. Sometimes I use avatars that might be used on a male. But people should assume I'm female because it says I'm female, and if I use masculine avatars I get annoyed if I get referred to by a masculine pronoun because it's always been obvious with me. >_o

Idgi. You say you hate gender bending and Hikari claims (Stress on 'claims') to be a genderbender.

I don't think you understand the novelty of gender bending, in that you can **** with people.

[Frostweaver]

I'm going to go with the terrible sexist stereotype: "assume male unless stated otherwise."

Though I myself generally use female avatars too if there's characters in it, onionhead being the exception. As for the masculine pronoun problem, erm I guess that we can blame English. Another +1 to Japanese in a Pokemon board.

Pretty much this.

You can't help but assume when avatar, signature, and posting style match up so that it seems very much so. (See: MidnightShine)

I understand it and find it really rude and unnecessary. As someone who can be socially anxious in real life, I can understand people with social anxiety online, and feeling like they don't know how to refer to a person because they keep switching genders really adds to that anxiety and I just can't get behind intentionally upsetting people for the sole reason that they tried to refer to you on the internet. HOW DARE THEY

[Retro Bug]

Maaybe I'm not around enough gender benders but I don't see how it upsets people... If you're unsure of someone's gender why don't you just ask them? Or ask them what pronouns you should refer to them as. I didn't know it was that hard to do or offensive. Like, why is it even important? You can say "they" or other gender neutral pronouns.

I can perfectly understand your opinion.

I don't know, I find it kind of gratifying to have successfully tricked someone.

[Livewire]

Can we talk about the important things again aka the election

[Toujours]

I guess I'm just more sensitive to the emotions of other people. I can't enjoy doing something if it upset/harmed another person, pranks are only fun when the victim isn't upset by it for me, lol. I really can't wrap my head around the other mindset because I've never been even close to it.

Edit: Live go away you have a politics thread go talk in that

[Eeveon]

I think gender-bending can be fine if you're not comfortable with putting your real gender online, I guess. Or if you identify as a gender opposite of your given gender at birth. But to do it just to purposely screw with people is pretty messed up, honestly... :\

Like what Toujours said, basically; I kind of grew a bit of anxiety when referring to other peoples' genders on here because I usually think some of them are gender bending, unless something - like a post or VM or something - proves that they are not.

You mean talk about something that already has its own thread for that specific topic in a different thread?

http://www.pokecommunity.com/showthread.php?t=286344

Can we continue the discussion there, I mean, there IS a thread for it. Why does the topic have to drag on into a different thread?
