It's probably best to disregard give that you have no way of reporting the behavior but it's sad that such crappy stuff is tolerated.

I have a tendency to create male profiles on unmoderated websites because it's just less hassle that way --- much less hassle.
When my gender on DU was undeclared a fair number of people assumed I was male. It was an interesting experiment.

It's really sad that there are adult creeps who think this is acceptable behavior. Gormy Cuss Jan 2014 #5
