How was someone to know your gender?

There are hundreds of pseudos on MR that aren't gender specific. I just think it's insulting to automatically assume that someone is a he if their pseudo is not gender specific. I'm very much a unapologetic proud liberal, but I wasn't insulted due to any feminist positions on female/male equality. Unless you personally know someone on boards/forums like this, the use of "he/she" just seems more appropriate to me. Perhaps desertgrandma just forgot to put the (s) in front of he!
