Well then the ladies should just suck it up and deal with it, because it's going to happen regardless, lol. I know I talked to many on here before about possibly having a pink badge made, since there aren't that many females. I mean there are many, but not in comparison to male members here. Just thought it would be something cute.

Soo - the lady folk should have a pink badge, to help out the straight guys? How about every gay guy on here gets a badge that sparkles, or the lesbians get a <Actually, I can't think of a stereotype here>. Also, why should women have to 'suck it up' and 'deal with it' when a bunch of guys come out with the usual somewhat sexist comments?

If someone wants to know if you're male or female, they can visit your profile if you've opted to select whether you're male or female.

This. If people want to let others know their gender / age / location / sexual orientation / <whatever> they can do so in their profile.

No. Why do you need a badge (pink or otherwise) to indicate your sex with every post? To gain more attention?

Don't need something "cute" tacked on. Post to post.

Wow, I only meant for it to be for aesthetic purposes, for the look...I've got more than enough attention on here and obviously without the ###### badge. Love the vulgarity of your post though...it's very lady like.

Edit: I also forgot to mention that my previous post wasn't worded correctly, and isn't solely a suggestion for females, as there are males who like pink also. I merely suggested the pink badge in general as an option for anyone. I just am so conditioned still to associate pink with females, when that is not exactly what I meant as my definitive reason for the suggestion.

    • Microsoft is making Windows 11's context menus faster, simpler, and configurable

      I think the car analogy is more this: Left hand drive, basic commands on the left side of the infotainment screen. Right hand drive, basic commands on the right side of the infotainment screen. Granted, you're not swapping between the two often so it's doesn't really work. But it's to do with the proximity of you (your mouse, or the driver) to the controls.

      I mean, the old one was broken and so stupidly complex for many users, so I don't see that as a feasible option. A context menu needs to be simple to use, and for me the Windows 11 style actually worked really well for me, and many others. I used to have to scroll the damn context menu just to get to "file properties" in Windows 10. That was not a good experience, and I'm sure you'd agree. What they're trying to do is make it the best of both worlds, as clearly you'd prefer the Win10 style. I'm curious how they're going to do this.

      The "Show more options" has its place, as does the simpler context menu, but it should perhaps be a separate fly-out rather than relaunching the entire, old context menu. The old context menu was getting absurd in Windows 10. Often I'd have to make the context menu scroll just to get to "File properties" on my old laptop. Even without much installed, the amount of items was just too much. It's a context menu, not a "do all" menu. Making it configurable is fraught with challenges too, so I'm interested to see how Microsoft tackles this one.

      I don't hate the new menus, I am not a fan of the lack of features and how they went live when they clearly are not complete. The menu itself presents much better than the previous - but what's lacking (IMO) is: 1) Any kind of automated manipulation such as: "this goes on the new menu because you use this feature more often on this filetype" "this is rarely used and will fall back to the old menu" 2) Any kind of user manipulation such as: "a UI to add/remove/order items to the new menu"
