when I first found TFP, it was mostly a pron site (or so it seemed at the time waaay back in the fark days v.1), so I wanted my name to make me appear to be male. I didn't want to be harassed as one of the only female members on a board of hungry, horny wolves. I pondered for a long time before I came up with it and it really tickled me!!!
soon though, the mods (mostly Halx at the time) kicked the bad boys out and the TFP we know and love began to take form. Then I went through some mixed feelings about keeping the name, but it has rather grown on me. I must assume that there are quite a few people that don't know me that still think I'm a guy on this board, which is fine. It may scatter some gender bias...
Great idea for a thread...I look forward to reading the rest of the posts!
