I bet people who bash strangers on the internet are beta as shit in real life. I did get a lot of PM's thereafter from people apologizing though because they believed I was male. They are irate because I am a young professional woman. Meanwhile they live off of foodstamps in their mother's basements. ![Roll Eyes ::)](http://www.getbig.com/boards/Smileys/classic/rolleyes.gif)
the types you mention probably infest all types of forums... But pretty much everyone "gets it" when new here, especially a woman, worse even...
Many of us do have good info to share, just needs the right thread or whatnot for it to shine.
