Maybe I am not the only one who would be interested to know whether a post is made by a male or female? I know both are well represented here and on the trails but sometimes a subject and subsequent comments are more appreciated when the gender is known. Just like we can’t always tell the tone of a post, the gender of the poster can also affect the view expressed. Such subjects as hiking solo or personal safety (and many others) often have a dissimilar character from the male/female perspective.
Many are discernable by their screen name, from their avatar, or over the course of time through posts and pictures. But that is not always the case and some may prefer to keep their gender unknown. But I think it beneficial and interesting to see the gender behind the name. Thus the poll.
