I think ppl who responded thus far have missed the point of "MS" -- who cares if women are married, single etc -- ms is simply equivalent to 'MR" you dont ask a man if he's married, why ask a woman???? who cares; use MS that said, let me add that I am female. I use only the name "alex" on list (short for alexandra of course) bc most ppl assume i am male. I have found on tech type lists that men tend to be respected more for their opinions, etc a sad fact of the world that in order to avoid the kind of misogynist racist attacks seen above (or at least avoid them directed at myself), i need to post with a non-gendered email name. Of course i also figured out a long time ago i have to be good at letting the shit that is said on list slide off.... ~alex Free email addresses helping endangered species every time you write http://www.purpleturtle.com ---------- Duo/2400 List, The friendliest place on the Net!
