FYI, "fit" was slang for "attractive" long before it was short for "outfit", ergo the username is not an "explicit" statement of the user's/users' gender IRL. ☝🏼

    To the extent that any username isn’t explicitly a statement of the users gender, I agree. But if I used the name “just some girl” as my username, I’d expect people to assume I was a girl. Same with “just some guy” assuming I was a guy.

    The moment you put a gender into your username, people are going to roll with what appears to be a self identification.
