That's a
perfect question for the Joonie thread!
English is such a wonderful language; it has multiple synonyms for virtually every word... though often the "sense" is quite different. Thus... I prefer not to disclose anything about myself Online (except that I'm brilliant, talented, and cute), but I think I can safely say that I don't think of myself as a "broad" without revealing my gender... and when you ask such questions in the future (say, at a bar with ambiguously dressed people) you
might want to use the words "girl" or "woman" instead of "chick" or "broad"
But Cherry is most certainly female. Shaped. She's an android, of course... and I should probably mention that my avatar is actually named "Shiori", but I couldn't find any cute pictures of Cherry with cat ears=)
Does that explain everything?
