As noted by my use of gender in the previous paragraph, I also obviously have no problem with her being a woman. Dawn is, after all, a female name, and she has certainly not corrected anyone who has assumed that she is as female in gender as her screen name. I don't, in fact, see how her posts -- and the logic and clarity of thought expressed in them -- could possibly have come from a man. At least not a heterosexual man.
Maybe she's both. Maybe she came here at first as a man, but then had a little, um, operation, and... presto! Now she's a woman. Well, stranger things have happened. Although, admittedly, probably not much stranger. Sal
