(the -nuns of Géarthnuns drove the choices here, so we went from "fragrance" to "mellifluousness", but hey)

I prefer to not be referred to with masculine pronouns and nouns such as “he/him/his”.

Sorry, not my intention to steal Rant's thunder. Just trying to match lexical items chromatically as I do over at Building. One always enjoys seeing a splash of color in a thread. I mean, what's the point of having all those delicious hues over to the right if no one's going to play with them? :mrgreen:
