- I LOVE LAMP! (nm) - musubi Apr 6, 09:47
- GREECE AND THE MIDDLE EAST AREN'T EVEN ON THE SAME CONTINENT!! -- nm - Don Homer Apr 6, 09:46
- "LOUD NOISES!" -- nm - Mel Profit Apr 6, 09:46
To be fair, I didn't realize you were transgender....I'm not sure much of ST did. - ty97 Apr 6, 09:45 17
- It was discussed several times, but as with all things Stacy-related, people were dubious at best. -- nm - Beryllium Apr 6, 09:48
- Yeah, that's news to me as well. -- nm - Jim Apr 6, 09:47
- I had gathered as much, but had no indication of preferred pronoun usage. -- nm - znufrii Apr 6, 09:47
- I didn't, and I'm pretty stalkerish. -- nm - amanda jones, transitarian Apr 6, 09:46
- Really? I knew. I thought I tried to point it out to others once, too, but maybe I'm remembering thinking about doing it and deciding it wasn't worth - mara Apr 6, 09:46 12
  - it's been mentioned in passing, but Stacy never really made much of an issue about it. - mafic Apr 6, 09:49
  - It could just be me who was oblivious. Wouldn't be the first thing I missed that everyone else knew about. - ty97 Apr 6, 09:47 10
    - Peter Gabriel wants to be known as: the guy who invented Genesis. - Epiphany Apr 6, 09:50
    - I didn't know. Maybe the name threw me off. I also thought he had referred to himself as a lesbian. - pmb Apr 6, 09:49 3
      - it's the kind of thing that quite often progresses over time. when Stacy identified as a woman, - mafic Apr 6, 09:53 1
        
        I don't remember when it switched though. I missed that episode. -- nm - pmb Apr 6, 09:56
      - yeah this too. -- nm - amanda jones, transitarian Apr 6, 09:50
    - As I recall, this is a philosophy rather than an indication of a medical procedure. - David Apr 6, 09:49 1
      - correct :) -- nm - Stacy Apr 6, 09:52
    - yeah, I don't think so. I'm pretty up on my goss and had no clue. (I know pretty much everything except where you are, ever.) -- nm - amanda jones, transitarian Apr 6, 09:48 2
      - ty97 is the male Carmen Sandiego. Does that make him Waldo? -- nm - Beryllium Apr 6, 09:49
      - Hell yeah! nm - Jim Apr 6, 09:49
OK, Stan. -- nm - zork Apr 6, 09:45 1
- snort -- nm - Beaker Apr 6, 09:54
Ok, I have to know...and I'm honestly not poking fun or anything. If someone were to use a pronoun when talking about you... - Jim Apr 6, 09:44 20
- I can't answer for Stacy, but I believe the answer is he/him since Stacy identifies as male. -- nm - ty97 Apr 6, 09:46 6
  - ok, now I'm confused. -- nm - decline Apr 6, 09:49
  - really? I thought Stacy identified as a she. But then again I missed a lot of the Stacy stuff. -- nm - sycor Apr 6, 09:47 2
    - Again, I don't want to speak for Stacy, but in general, a female-to-male transgender person would originally identify as she (due to anatomy) and then - ty97 Apr 6, 09:49 1
      - I'd guess closer to 95/5. -- nm - loosilu Apr 6, 09:50
  - this is my understanding too. -- nm - mafic Apr 6, 09:47 1
    - The bottom line to me is, either spell it out in the wiki, or understand that not everyone will know and be able to follow your wishes. -- nm - mara Apr 6, 09:48
- yeah, in my experience, it helps if there's a name change involved as well. -- nm - znufrii Apr 6, 09:46 8
  - But in this case, "Stacy" is a sort-of gender neutral name. Like 70/30, which is better than most. -- nm - Beryllium Apr 6, 09:48 6
    - more like 95/5. -- nm - loosilu Apr 6, 09:52 1
      - I don't have any evidence to the contrary, so you might be right. -- nm - Beryllium Apr 6, 09:54
    - I don't know any men (original poster excluded) who go by the name Stacy. -- nm - znufrii Apr 6, 09:50 3
      - Rob Petrie's brother on the Dick Van Dyke Show. -- nm - pmb Apr 6, 09:51
      - The only example I can think of is Stacy Keach, monk's boss -- nm - Beryllium Apr 6, 09:50
      - I do. Well, Stacey, with an 'e'...but same difference really. -- nm - Jim Apr 6, 09:50
  - *nods* -- nm - zork Apr 6, 09:47
- cause quite frankly, I ain't using "hir". -- nm - Reagen Apr 6, 09:45
- it? -- nm - Don Homer Apr 6, 09:45 2
  - yeah, that's clearly disrespectful. -- nm - ty97 Apr 6, 09:46 1
    - yes, it is, and I apologize. -- nm - Don Homer Apr 6, 09:49
as you wish, but you know what else is disrespectful? posting in all caps. -- nm - mafic Apr 6, 09:44
M|A|R|R|S???? -- nm - DaneMacDuke Apr 6, 09:44
And just so you know I'm seeing a psychiatrist and on meds for anxiety, depression, and bipolar and considered in great health... - Stacy Apr 6, 09:43 3

- best wishes. -- nm - Don Homer Apr 6, 09:43 1
  - this -- nm - Beaker Apr 6, 09:56
Note that when I referred to "Giant Blonde She-Male" below, I was making a reference to the show Chuck. Just saying. -- nm - Beryllium Apr 6, 09:43 2
- threadwinner -- nm - Remlik Apr 6, 09:44 1
  - it might be an L5. -- nm - zork Apr 6, 09:45
*snork* -- nm - Spawn Apr 6, 09:42
Are you it? -- nm - Hotkiss Apr 6, 09:42
Wait. Is this for real? (nm) - musubi Apr 6, 09:42 7
- Why wouldn't it be? -- nm - mara Apr 6, 09:44 4
  - I don't know. Lots of people here don't follow SI rules anymore, and make joke accounts. - musubi Apr 6, 09:46 3
    - It's always been her username here. -- nm - mara Apr 6, 09:47 1
      - *shrug* I don't keep track of account names. - musubi Apr 6, 09:48
    - that's her account. -- nm - loosilu Apr 6, 09:46
- Why does she, I mean Stacy show up when I have to leave for lunch!?! - Spawn Apr 6, 09:44 1
  - Over the line, sweetie. -- nm - Amy Apr 6, 09:45
Can I still call you deluded? -- nm - Reagen Apr 6, 09:42
That's cool - znufrii Apr 6, 09:41
