Note, missed your first message so got wrong impression from what looked
alike a comment "Eat me, I'm an azuki".
But online people often miss part of messages or misunderstand
intentions...
Of course, you now feel a bit what it's like for someone to misinterpret
what you write because of your sex. Here we've had some past harassment
from guys, so without - or even with - context we may look at that
phrase skeptically.
On Wikipedia where a number of guys just are annoyed at anything said by
females, they also will be quick to misinterpret or think badly of
anything written by women.

Hello,
My on-wiki username is Eat me, I'm an azuki (formerly Eat me, I'm a red
bean). My main wiki is enwiki, so you can contact me on my talk there
(as opposed to, say, my talkpage on the Finnish Wikinews). I am this
list's newest member.
I wish to share my views about the gender gap issue on Wikimedia
projects, but first I would like to know you all better.
I hope that this list will generate a lot of interesting discussions
that can help me gain some insight about this issue too.
Yours,
Eat me, I'm an azuki
