ha! congratulations!
In fairness, it would have been pretty hard to determine anyone's gender in winter bike clothes, unless you were wearing, like, a Hello Kitty coat. And even then...
Are you going to write a letter to the editor?
Nah, it's evidence that my gender-neutral approach is working. But really, what guy wears cranberry?
I wear cranberry! Maybe they thought you were me. No, wait; that would definitely make it the worst day of your life.
That's why I over-compensated today and wore a skirt and heels...and leave my hair down. I don't think the mass of hair sticking out of the balaclave is flattering, but at least I'm recognizable.
Guys wear cranberry, we just call it "red."
:-D
