    Well, as you can see from my avatar, it's obvious I'm...
    Oh. Never mind.

    ...Relaxed, and enjoy decorative upholstery?

    While a bow is a good idea, don't forget to add long lashes too - bows and long lashes on anything are a certain indicator that it's female, see any cartoon for evidence.

    In my family it's the guys who have long lashes.

    So if my avatar had had a bow it would have looked more obvious ?

    I think it's almost an unspoken internet rule that if your avatar isn't either cute or covered in pink that you're considered male. In my case, of course, you'd be dead correct. Of course, I could go around in pink ribbons and bows, but I'd probably get funny looks from the people at the supermarket. I already get enough funny looks from anyone who remembers the horrific outfit I was forced to wear at an anime convention.

    Oh, the hideous shame...

    So...

    What does my avatar imply?

    And does incessant making of Cow references and images play a part?

    I always considered myself a Pop Mystic Transvestite, Tao-Toon Fool, and Cartoon Messiah - but I got that from Vaughn Bode... so take it for what it's worth (if anything).

    So, a friend and I were conversing by email, and I was told about someone I referred to as "He" who had posted some nice work, is actually female...

    I told my friend: "I'm still living in the past, then, when everyone on the internet who claimed to be a girl was a fat, harry man sitting in five day old underwear living in the squalor of his parents garage with fingers orange from eating Cheetos and pizza..."

    Am I the only one who still thinks this way?


    Well... I never claimed to be a girl, but sometimes people have been confused by my avatar...
    So, in your defense... I am sitting in squalor, but it is my own (made it from scratch)... I am hairy and my underwear are pretty beat up... but I don't really eat cheetos and I don't like any of my local Pizza... So if you guessed I'm a guy from my avatar you would be correct... and I do usually have two insane little girls harassing me as also depicted in my avatar... my desk is a mess and I usually dress like Indiana Jones too... my previous avatar led some to believe I sulked around in an anime-esque overlord helmet and wore a cape all day... that was only partly correct, as back then I also had a staff with a magical possum skull attached to the end, but it looked kinda funny when I drew it...
    I tend to believe that most people are what their avatar suggests... a pink foot, a menacing witch with a club, a talking skunk, a pile of soylent green packages, a tabby cat with a machine gun, killer robot, and the occasional odd human thrown in here and there... it's all very real to me... but I'm completely insane, so thats no real gauge of anything...
    As it is these days, its all very hard to judge anyone's gender or species anymore, what with cats and dogs taking over YouTube and cross species marriages becoming the norm ...

    In defense of the last one, it was the cat's dying wish and he had been promising her for some time...
    Anyway back to whatever it was I was going on about...
    You can't be faulted for thinking everyone out there who claims to be a girl is actually a big fat hairy guy wallowing in his own filth... But these are changing times and increasingly large numbers of internet users that claim to be girls are actually big fat hairy women wallowing in their own filth, and or assorted farm animals or killer robots looking for a friend...
    gone are the days when big fat hairy orange men in crusty underwear, posing as sexy young girls, ruled in internet... these days almost anyone can be as devoid of a real life and identity as those poor souls... it's actually fashionable now, so much so that whole asian countries are be smelted down for their rare earth metals so we can all own a smart phone and tweet our latest bowl movements... (I had a link for that somewhere)...
    Oddly enough, I have heard that some of the girls out there, actually are girls and not entirely scary looking... some are actually devoid of Cheeto dust ( except for the vixens at that Cheeto fetish website... they are pretty dusty... yup... very orange... like sexy nubile oompa loompas...) But I digress...
    Does it really matter if your friend is really a sexy young girl dressed up as a big fat transgender man in a penguin costume trapped in an 70's Soviet women's olympic wrestling champion's body or just some real fat guy or plain sexy chick?
    These earthly bodies we hold are all so fleeting anyway and what really matters is the quality of our character, not the crustiness of our underwear... for all anyone knows, I could be a stray cat sitting here writing this... well, I'm sure someone would probably figure it out since everything I just wrote would come out like "Meow... meeeeow, mew, merrrow, meow meow meow merrrrow mew mreow... " and that would probably be a dead giveaway...
    Either way, the days when we could all be fooled by an individual's gender and fat content may be numbered too... Googles new "Idiotic Looking Glasses" (I'm not 100% sure if thats what they call them), look to change the future... pretty soon we may treated to actual glimpses of our fellow internetian's surroundings and probably at some point their actual horrifying reflection caught on some glossy surface.
    No longer will you be fooled by FoxyMama123's avatar when you see "she" is actually the Jack Links Sasquatch (covered in Cheetos dust and wearing crusty grey underwear).
    But then again when people feel the need to tweet "I'm in the park and a sexy squirrel is checking me out" or "what is a pedi stool?", what's the point of hiding your appearance when you can't even hide your stupidest thoughts and opinions...
    Its a brave new stupid world out there, getting dumber every day... enjoy it while it lasts
    Woof.

    I think it only matters to guys

    lets face it, if they find out you're a girl it's like they've won a trophy and they think they're in with a chance of a quick perv

    or if the reverse, they feel the need for several showers in quick succession.

    No one believes I'm a cat, though.

    As Simon and Garfunkel might have sung ...

    Slow down, you moo too fast.
    You got to make the renders last.
    Just laying down the cridgit poses.
    Looking for fun and feline groovy.

    You made me google image search for 'Cheeto fetish'. At work. You win. ;)

    ...OK now I find this just a wee bit more disturbing...

    http://www.funnyjunk.com/funny_pictures/2281894/BRONIES/

    Yep, that's two guys in those costumes at a "BronyCon"

    More info you, may or may not wish to know...

    http://www.wired.com/underwire/2011/06/bronies-my-little-ponys/


    ...and even scarier, I heard about this while listening to a "man cave" oriented show on the local sports radio station today.


    ...for some reason I now feel at absolute peace with my avatar.

    Even at brony conventions, you won't see many like that.

    ...it's the ones who don't do the full suits who I feel are really ummm...scary?

    some of what I saw while Googling this makes me want to wash my eyes out with lye soap.

    ...shoot, even the "furries" at Cons scare the bejezus out of me (and I'm going to a Con next weekend).
