This is an idea for a short list one could put into one's signature. It would be

written:

(1,2,3,4,5) where the numbers are:

1. Sex (Male/Female)

2. Nationality [edit]- for those of you who are bizarrely unaware of what this means, it's the adjective that shows what nation you live in, e.g. someone who lives in the USA has nationality "american", someone who lives in britain has nationality "british".

3. First language

4. Religion or Non-religious philosophy (e.g. atheism, agnosticism, humanism...)

5. Political ideology if you have one


You could also put "prefer not to disclose" if you don't want to give that

information.

E.g. I would be (Male, British (English), British English, Atheist, N/A)

If you have any suggestions on how to improve this, please give them.

Meh. I assumed that people wouldn't mind revealing these things in their signatures which they reveal in posts. Your signature already reveals your nationality (not that your misuse of the word "like" didn't), and you've said before that you wish to be called "kevin", which would be pretty odd for a female.

I like the idea and I'll put it into my sig. I doubt the idea will work very well due to all the smartasses who'll just put N/A over and over. But hey, it'd drop the number of useless/repetitive posts.

(Female, Ashkenaz Jewish, American English, paganism, pseudo-idealistic liberalism)

How about we append some of our deepest, darkest secrets on there, just to finish it off?

Ashkenaz Jewish

Huh? By nationality, I meant: The status of belonging to a particular nation by origin, birth, or naturalization.

First language---> American, since I don't speak english like the UK

Religion or Non-religious philosophy---> Xian (being non-denominational christian) with drudic and jewish fluxes
