Just the opposite, count the number of times Nereid has been referred to as 'he', until I (or someone else) pointed out the origin of the name:

I know. I mean really, if you were a male Super Mentor then why would Nereus have named his daughters after you? I mean think about it, people.

Hah! Looks like we sucked Diane into GD! :-p :approve:

Hi Nereid, Yes, I know, several times. I'm really delighted to see you back again BTW, we must talk Venus sometimes. As of gender, I have observed major discussion accidents when the gender of the opposing party was unclear/unkwown, which hints to choosing clear aliasses.
