I would have found it quite amusing/scary to suddenly see some huge balance on my account. BTC-e.com sends emails for any account activity and I haven't seen anything I didn't cause. Also, BTC-e.com is just too convenient no

Hmm, so let's see. If this kind of stuff is going on with gender relations, does it exist with race too? Orientation? For the tech-world, I guess a black lesbian would be a triple-concern? I would say that is a problem. Not sure how to

That's just an excuse. Why are you more worried that a female coworker will misunderstand you than a male one?
