Words have gender, people have sex. But not the people on this board, I'll wager.

Methinks your real objection is to the slight frission of naughtiness attendent upon the use of the term "sex" in otherwise non-salacious contexts. In which case, my only response is: "killjoy!"

The only thing I can find that I posted in the time period that he might have been confused by is "Anyway, basically I find all of this very interesting. I definitely, definitely agree that there are, on a general level, sex-linked differences in how people process information."

Like, maybe I was saying people process information differently when fucking than at other times. This is no doubt true (though I question whether he would know that unless we are deeming masturbation to be sex), but given the context of the conversation in general and the rest of the post in particular, I doubt anyone was confused. I would have just come out and said "of course, when fucking, everyone's thought processes are different!" if that is what I had intended.

I shoulda. Coulda shoulda woulda.
