Although I don't really like my name, one thing I do like about it is that it serves as a warning sign. Anybody that calls looking for a sir, any mail addressed to a Mr. Lee, and any email related to anything masculine is probably not intended for me. I'm sure everyone is getting penis enlargement spam these days, but I feel that the ratio of male-related to female-related spam I receive is way off. As a matter of fact, all the dating services I get wind of feature pictures of young girls, and the rest of the spam is always sex-related (but from a man's perspective). Maybe this happens to everybody, but people just assume that I'm a guy because of my name, which means that both my real and virtual inboxes are filled with things addressed to "Dear Sir."
The groovy part is that my middle name changes everything. I can use this to get the "in" with employers, although it hasn't seemed to work yet. I can look at the company and question whether or not I should be Lee Ann, Lee A. or just Lee.
I must be guessing wrong.
Still, it's nice to have options.
Dear Lee, I assure you you're not the only woman to get spam that is male oriented. Based on the amount I get this must be a very distressing issue for men.
Et alors?
I've had my breasts enlarged twice. Cheap at the price.
I still await female-oriented sex spam. Donkeys don't do it. Not even for a man.
Lee is just fine.
S - Yes, but how many people get regular mail addressed "Dear Sir" to them daily? Or, when I lived in the States, I got a lot of telemarketing people asking for Mr.? It's like an automatic filtering system.
Tal - How come I haven't gotten my breasts enlarged?
