Members who don't use their own name, and have not posted a profile or photos are chosing some level of anonymity. I don't see anything wrong with that. There are many Catters I enjoy in here who I don't even know whether they are male or female.
John Lennon and Yoko Ono made a thought provoking appearance on television once wearing full length paper bags covering them. The point they were trying to make is that people are judged by their appearance, by their color and ethnicity. If everyone wore a full length paper bag, no one could be prejudiced by color or race, and people wouldn't be thought of as ugly or beautiful because of their appearance. I thought it was an excellent point to make.
Most Catters wear full length paper bags.
And that's fine with me. It kinda strips life down to its essentials.
