Being forced to either lie (pretend to be a dude) or be honest (tagged to be a chick) annoys me. I don't want to lie, but I also don't like necessarily being visually identified as female online before people even read what I've said.
It's like wearing a 'kick me' sign.
Why go with gendered avatars at all?
