In this new site format, I see that my gender is not determined. At my age, I find this disturbing since I've always lived under the assumption that I was male. Despite my repeated efforts, the server continues to insist that my gender cannot be determined. Hey - it ain't that small. Normally a shock like this would make a me want to go out and get drunk - but in checking around, I see that many members' genders are in doubt. Is this some new bug going around? A terrorist attack on our egos perhaps? Whatever - there seems to be a lot of us in the same boat - wondering what to piss through.

Emax,

it's a bug in the software. IPS is working on getting it fixed.

IPS is 'fixing' things now? I'm satisfied with the children I have now, but that doesn't mean I want to be 'fixed'.

"that doesn't mean I want to be 'fixed'."

Me neither. Maybe we should just leave the server alone. In light of the "color" function not working too well either, a terrible mistake might be made!
Then there's "cut-and-paste"... I won't even go there.

Oh Horse - don't be such a stick-in-the-mud. This is a whimsical thread poking fun at small binary glitches.

Christmas 2006. My wife gave me a pack of condoms. I take this as an affimation of not only my gender, but also as a confirmation of my prowess!
Server be damned - it seems I'm O.K.
Actually though, she's been "fixed" - so I'm not sure of her message with this gift. More to follow - film at eleven...
