Shiver me timbers! I almost feel like I'm coming out of the closet.

Firstly, I'm sparticus


Secondly, No really, who the hell are these people.

 

[megapenguinx]

I'm a guy with some female tendencies so big whoop. Although I never really care what gender the person is. I care about what they actually post

 

[Inverse Skies]

Hmmm... not many people are actually confessing to stuff are they?

Eventually I'm going to have to kick my roommate out of my apartment because my sister will want to move in... thats going to be an interesting thing to say. I'd rather live with her though, she's heaps cleaner (and will pay the rent properly...)

Well, I've been contemplating typing this out on the forums for a pretty decent amount of time, and I've finally decided to just write it up and get it over with.

I am not a female.

Now when I first came here, I used an avatar of Hayley Williams, as I am a big fan of Paramore. As time went on, people started to assume I was a female (a rather humorous situation) and really took no questioning to it. While my initial reaction was to dispel the belief, I ended up leaving the topic untouched for a while. People started to question what sex I was after an amount of time and I was pressured to make a statement on the whole "What gender is Shivari?" thing, so I decided to go with what everyone had initially assumed; I said that I was a girl.

So basically, I ran with it and decided that I couldn't go back from there. I definitely found it interesting how the same personality can be more hailed when the gender is viewed differently, but other than noticing that and the occasional giggling at some of the fanboys I acquired, I went about my forum life as if it were no different than anything else. I wasn't trying to trick people; it was just something that I was doing. I will say that everything I have said on these forums that hasn't had to do with stating my gender has been completely factual. I'm still the same person with the same opinions and same personality; you just now have a fainter hint as to what I may actually look like.

So hate me if you wish, as I did lie to you and to everyone on here. It's something I porbably should have never started, but I did. It's been a situation that I took advantage of, nothing more, and nothing less. I apologize if this has annoyed or hurt you in any way, just understand that I had no mal intent.

So, in case this totally doesn't justify being a thread at all, a discussion prompt could be "What have you ever had to confess?"

you got 'hailed' for being female? xD Female gamers usually get anything but hailed. But anyway, I find tis quite amusing. I also don't care. Enjoy being male again.

I entered into a new forum full of people I thought new me, and 75% of them assumed I was female because I had my relationship with my boyfriend start on GameFAQs fairly publicly. It took about a week for us to explain to everyone I was also a male

 

[Skeleon]

I confess: I never read a post of yours so I didn't even know you were seen as a female.
Also, I must confess that I really like coffee.
Can we move on now?

 

[bodyklok]

Burn the witch! Ye lie to us all. Honestly though, I don't care what gender you are. But I like the way you fooled everyone for a while there, not me thought I always new, cos I'm awesome.

Hah! Plot twists abound!

What next, is Danzorz Yahtzee's secret alter ego? Mobius is really a Jedi? Larenxis and Purps finally going to propose? Well, the past day and a half have certainly been interesting.

You know Shivari, you have done more than my experiment could have ever resulted in. Props to you!

 

[InProgress]

No, I'm Spartacus!

I am Spartacus!

I'M Spartacus.

I am Spartacus.

Can I be Spartacus? (know the refereence, get a cookie)

OT: The fact that you're another gender than what says in your profile has absolutely nothing to do with how/what you think, so I don't have a problem at all.

 

[Delicious]

Dammnit why did you have to ruin such an epic ruse?

You should've gotten people to promise to sleep with you first, then let the peni...cat, out of the bag.

 

[arcainia]

So you seriously want me to believe people made that much of a big deal about your gender that you had to make a topic about it? I don't know who to be ashamed of more.

Honestly, who cares.

 

[Bourne Endeavor]

Clearly you should have used this [http://i238.photobucket.com/albums/ff143/Heart_Candy/Tokio%20Hotel/Bill%20Kaulitz/BillKaulitz17.jpg] pic for your avatar. At least then you could have said: "Hey my avatar is a guy, what's the confusion?"

Joking aside, not that I know you at all, this isn't a bother. I knew someone who took the "pretending to be female" too far, with all sorts of fake information to 'prove' the claim. This is simply saying you are when you're not, on a forum were it frankly means nothing. It is amusing to see the attention female users garner just when making their gender known though.

 

[Scarecrow38]

The thing about confessing is that there's nothing you ever actually HAVE to confess to. Which makes it all the more meaningful when someone actually does.

 

[Reaperman Wompa]

Well thats great then? I don't really see what's so amazing. Bit creepy you pretended/didn't say you weren't a girl but whatever, the whole Ultrajoe thing will probably cause this "revelation" to be forgotten soon as all the people recover from the mindfuck associated with Ultrajoes Ultrafemininity...I think I spelled that right.

And I don't confess to anything ever.

 

[Samurai Goomba]

I also have a confession.

I am... Not Spike Spiegal. What a surprise.

You know, I've been reading quite a few recent posts by Ultrajoe, and I really don't notice. The voice in my head that plays when she posts continues to be a deep, raspy echo, and her real voice never appears for a second.

That's the internet for you, I suppose.

Also, what the hell with the Spartacus comments? I've got fucking imitators now, have I?

 

[vxicepickxv]

I'm shocked, SHOCKED, that you are not Spike Spiegal.

I am not my avatar either, but I do look a lot like him.
