I can tell you from experience, don’t ask a unknown looking person if they are a man or a woman. I had to because she sounded like a man, and looked like one too, but I thought wrong.

@shego I actually rather enjoy being asked if I’m a man or a woman. I always just respond “What do you think?” and nod thoughtfully at whatever they say.

Questions that don’t matter.

Unfortunately, deciding whether or or not the answer to their question matters is something I think seldom happens.

@shego this awkwardness extends to children. I did NOT ask but found the ” young lady” I told to sit down [during a substitute teaching gig] was a boy and he burst into tears.

Don’t ask a woman if she’s pregnant unless you are really sure she is.

@tranquilsea @perspicacious Probably not a great thing to ask a man either!

In my experience, let them tell you on their own, don’t ask…

How old are you?
What’s your religion?
Whom did you vote for in the last presidential election?
What’s your sign?

A woman should never ask a man “Does this [item of clothing] make me look fat?” He will either lie, or he will tell the truth. Either way, it won’t necessarily make you feel better.
