Since this is the first time you came up with that I will take the time to answer.
No I am not a man. Someone who I was arguing with decided that I could not be a woman because it was going badly for him. Since then some of our members have perpetuated it. Capitalguy even claims to have read an imaginary thread that no one else ever saw where he claims I confessed to being a man.
I understand SPJ's position that being honest is bad for business etc, but I believe people have a right to know. So I guess she and I will never see eye to eye.
None the less I am a woman and a mother. And even if I was not, how would that make facts and risks less real?
I am a little surprised you would lbelieve petty rumors and even more surprised you would let them taint your reaction to solid information.
