As a general policy we do not allow male nicks in channel. The channel needs to be able to differentiate between men and women. However each nick will be evaluated on an individual basis and with sensitivity by our ops.
If told to change your nick, we hope that you will kindly cooperate. If you refuse to for whatever personal reasons, our ops will regrettably have no choice but to ask you to leave.
There are ways of rewording your nick so that it reflects that you are not male. You could add B/boi, Syr, B/butch, D/dyke to your nick in some way, shape or form. The list is not exhaustive so be creative and have fun.
