I assume, since this forum has been around since 2003(?) that i'm spinning my wheels but....Can we have a gender indication under everyones avatar?

...sometimes it's a must-know when leaving a comment for someone in a thread. I don't always respond to females the same way I respond to males. Or, i.e., sometimes i'll jokingly tease a male when it would be inappropriate to tease a female.

...i know you might say "it's a matter a privacy" but c'mon...everyone in real life knows if you're male or female (with some exceptions). Is it because one might fear being hit on? Well, that happens in real life all the time and you just deal with it. We do have a report button and moderators/admin everywhere

...and I know you might say to "just go to their profile" but that's an extra step when you're just wanting to leave a quick comment and you're never guaranteed that the answer will be there as it's optional information.

...if "No", then can we compromise and at least reveal the gender of willing participants under their avatars?
