I think his comment came across as kind of snarky (“oh you should totally...”) and that might be why.
Oh dang girl, I’ve sent you PM’s about how I use my vagina and you still call me he? I think I just won the least feminine woman on the internet award or something.
Heh, I wasn’t insulted. I got into the habit of keeping my sex on the down low when I was playing WoW (because being conspicuously female gets you a lot of bad/icky attention and is only worth it if you play it for special treatment, which I didn’t want), so I don’t tend to spray a lot of girly text-pheromones around. That’s all I meant when I said I won the least feminine woman on the internet award. Definitely didn’t mean you were unfeminine, or un-feminist, or anything like that.
Whoops. I think more to the point, I don’t always remember who has what username. I’m a bit that way in real life too: I don’t always pay attention to who I’m talking to when I get onto discussing ideas. (I’m not sure if you meant “feminist” or “feminine” but I’m neither so that’s fine.)

You are probably justified in being insulted that I completely forgot the vagina conversation was with you.
