You really, really need to read this thread.
Is it cold in here?:

Never try to guess.
Toast until it smokes and then,
Twenty seconds less.

Is everyone comfortable with the statement that Dickmouth Stinkface's behavior is a remarkable outlier on the distribution of observed behavior among women in the cultures people here are familiar with? (Almost as if she weren't an actual person but just a comic strip parody?)
If her conduct were common among men (it isn't among the ones I know) then would it necessarily be bad to speculate about whether she was mis-assigned?
