Honestly, I'd been reading your LJ for about 6 months before I figured out which of your many names is your given name, and what gender your birth certificate must say - I wasn't scouring the posts for clues or anything, but I did find it an impossible question to ignore completely. Sometimes the uncertainty tripped me up a little, and it always made me pause and try to figure out why it seemed to matter to me at that particular moment, which really opened my eyes to some things.
Also, I'd love to be added to that filter, if that's ok by you.
