Naberus's Gender

[naberus]

I noticed there was some discussion over on the "about you" thead and so I thought why not just make a separate thread on the topic.

(Yes I am conceited, but I love it )

 

[Cegorach]

Conceited maybe. (So am I! )

But this does give an interesting perspective on discerning an individuals gender without any sensual clues. It may allow others to see the similarities between the two, and realize that the gender gap may not be quite as encompassing as they had imagined.

I say male by the way.

 

[cheese]

Male. But I've gotten some female vibes too.

*edit
You will tell us eventually right?

 

[inquiringF]

Let me see. You kind of come off as a girl, but you can't ever know online so well.

 

[QSR]

male

 

[dwags222]

asexual

 

[dwags222]

nah, that avatar has man written all over it.

 

[Anthile]

asexual

Asexuality is not a gender but a sexual orientation.

 

[Dissident]

The avatar seems to say male, but the "guess my gender" thing says female louder, so I'll go with female.

 

[inquiringF]

Asexuality is not a gender but a sexual orientation.

Physiology makes some creatures asexual, because they haven't got any defined gender, and they all reproduce from asexual reproduction. You've also gotta think about bacteria and plants. 'A' stands for absent of sex in asexual. A human can be genderless somehow, in theory.

Nab obviously reproduces by budding! He creates small replicas of himself that slowly grow out of the side of his ribcage. Nab himself can even remember when he was but a small budling, watching the world from 4 feet off the ground while his parent-host walked around.

Yeah, male. But a bit of a pansy. Like a good INTP. <3

 

[naberus]

Hmm, perhaps I should have made this a poll...
Anyone who wants one say "I".

 

[Wisp]

Naberus, stop being a tease and tell us.

 

[Seducer of the Homeless]

nah, that avatar has man written all over it.

i said this in the 'about you' thread, i was torn apart for some reason

 

[naberus]

Alright I'll give you guys a hint:

I'm a member of at least two popular online art communities under the same username, my gender is reveled on both. If you can find one of them, post the answer here for everyone see.

Good luck

Seeing the name Naberus, with latin male -us suffix, i ever thought male, but i could be wrong.

Edit: seen it, but i wont give a spoiler.

 

[Chimera]

You're female, so says your DeviantArt.
Impressive gallery, by the way.

Correct (a thousand points to you), and thank you

 

[Seducer of the Homeless]

Goddamn!

 

[Jesin]

Impressive gallery, by the way.
​

I second that.

 

[hermann morr]

Yes, impressive skill

 

[QSR]

Why do women love playing games so much?

 

[naberus]

If it's any consolation...I'm not straight (altough I don't look it) so that may be where most of you are getting the male/masculine vibes from.

 

[Cegorach]

I still say male, reality has no hold on me!!! MWAHAHAHAHA!
...Then again you are INTJ(Right?), so you have no Pness.

 

[inquiringF]

Hahahahaha, I got it right. I'm clever.

 

[Cegorach]

Strategic incompetence is a superpower for deflecting unnecessary work.
I meant to get it wrong.... I swear....

 

[truthseeker72]

This serves as a lesson for us INTP's. As independent-minded as we are, we still can succumb to gender stereotypes. (For the record, I never committed to pegging Naberus as a man)

 

[Artifice Orisit]

Naberus could be both, there is a medical term for it.
It has something to do with internal testicals.

Just thought I'd put that out there.

Hermapradite?

Hermaphrodite

 

[Artifice Orisit]

Yay, Hermaphrodite!

[Waterstiller]

Just so you guys know.. "hermaphrodite" is somewhat offensive to the intersex community.


And I fucking hate that song.

 

[cheese]

^Why though? It is a real phenomenon and the term itself is not meant to be offensive.

In biology, "hermaphrodite" means an organism that has both "male" and "female" sets of reproductive organs (like snails and earthworms). In humans, there are no actual "hermaphrodites" in this sense, although doctors have called people with intersex conditions "hermaphrodites" because intersex bodies do not neatly conform to what doctors define as the "normal" male or female bodies. We find the word "hermaphrodite" misleading, mythologizing, and stigmatizing. Although some intersex activists do reclaim and use this term to describe themselves, it is not an appropriate term to refer to intersex people in general. In short, snails are the hermaphrodites; humans are not.
Also, please avoid using the word "intersexual" as a noun; we prefer "intersex people" or "people with intersex conditions/experiences."

That link is a decent "101" for intersex etiquette, btw.

Midgets are awesome & funny,
Gays are fountains of relationship wisdom,
Lesbians are the best drinking partners,
and until people learn to stop being so touchy about these casual identifiers they will remain fixed with the idea that somehow they're a bad thing.

Like that southpark episode where the boys didn't know the image of a white person hanging a black person was racist because in their minds the white/black thing was irrelevant.

That said I respect people's right to refuse whatever identification they find offensive.

Let me know if you need a prostitute to kill on CSI.

 

[QSR]

Intersexed? Just more of them to love!

 

[QSR]

Hey I know somebody who played a prostitute who got killed on CSI.

 

[Artifice Orisit]

Let me know if you need a prostitute to kill on CSI.

I don't get it

 

[Waterstiller]

I'm sure someone will put the pieces together.

Har. har. har.
