Re: [Histonet] René as a name.

My goodness, I am afraid to admit that flippant remarks like this from the list are making me think that perhaps Mr. Taupin might have a point after all....

For all those not cognizant of it, including the eminently intellectual Mr.
Taupin, the name "René" is a male French name.  The tip off is the
acute accented "é" at the end.  The female name is
"Renée".  René's name is not androgynous at all, it is quite
clearly male, and anyone who has studied French should be aware of it.

Mr. Taupin is clearly trolling, so could we please have him removed from this
group?

1. How is anyone supposed to know your gender online when you have such an
androgynous name?
2. what does your gender have to do with this in the first place?

gender equality is gender equality. but, not surprisingly, none of the
feminists on this list have come out to say that.

though i bet some would if i said something sexist, eh?

Thanks to Kenlo and Alan for your nice words, only a detail though:
I am a HE and not a SHE that just turned 75 on April First, I am "a
legitimate April Fool" and I intend to keep doing what I am doing for as
long as I can.

Nice one Kemlo:

Rene has always impressed me with the depth and breadth of her obviously great
knowledge and skill in the practice of our humble art. Long may she continue to
do so.

As a histo group we should really strive to help each other and share our many
and unique skills and applied techniques. A Giemsa squash prep for seeking
Entamoeba, as described, sounds very appropriate to me.

Come on guys, there has been a lot of knocking and critiscm of colleagues
online lately. Now is the time to stop.
