Counter-rant - "gender" is a grammatical term.

Am I Male or Female, ...

I can't answer from this distance. But there are some simple observations that you can make yourself if you want to know the answer

..., or am I Masculine or Feminine?

That looks wrong. I think it should be:

Is "I" masculine or feminine?
And the answer is simple. "I" is both masculine and feminine. The word can be use for both gender cases.

Sorry to be a pedantic. But then this whole thread is about being pedantic.
