    Take a look at this "identify gender from text site": https://www.nyckel.com/pretrained-classifiers/gender-text-identifier/

    Find a "pothole" post, and copy and past his — yes, *his* — text into the box
    and click on the Submit button. It comes back "Male" 100% of the time.

    And this is analyzing only the content, not the formatting, of the text. "pothole" has obviously male formatting traits. A *huge* one is is line and paragraph spacing. He has "paragraphs" with no intervening space lines. Here's a
    sample:

    And?
    I'm not opposed to EVs.
    I support choice and a free market so as not to intentionally limit one
    product or the other?

    A woman would put the second line on the same line as the first line. A woman would make the last sentence ("I support...") a separate paragraph. And note the
    incorrect question mark at the end of the last line. Women don't make that mistake.

    "pothole" is male, albeit not masculine. Everybody here knows this.

    Right. Some wouldn't be so sure about you.
