Hi Flyn, Thank you for your polite and well reasoned reply. I'm sorry that it comes across as cosplay. I hope you understand that it wasn't my intention - but I understand you found it distasteful. I agree with you that a title is not indicative of one's chromosomes. There are plenty of gender neutral titles like Dr, Professor, etc. The link says that "some people" don't like it. Therefore some people do. And, judging from my friends, they are comfortable with it. Finally, as per your subsequent message, I didn't delete your comment. All comments are pre-moderated before publication. I'll make that clearer on the form to avoid confusion. Thanks for sharing your opinion.
