For the record

Understandably, considering my nickname, there've been some misunderstandings of late with people who are just meeting me (online).

SO:

I am a girl of the womanly female persuasion. That means I identify, gender-wise as a lady; physically I produce ova (one imagines) and am theoretically capable of bearing young. I fall to the distaff side.

(It's OK if you thought I was a boy, but people thinking I'm a man won't get me the kind of date I'd like. So. Therein lies the motivation to clarify.)
