About a Link, Please Let Us Know A Poser is defined as a person who is using a nickname denoting one gender, but is acually the other. Posers assume the persona of that gender, for whatever reason. Note however, there are some chat rooms where assuming the identity of another person, or gender, is the norm. The vast majority of Posers will be found in the womens chat rooms, such as the Lesbian or Bifem rooms.
Most Posers are male, acting as if they are female.
We have yet to hear of a female posing as a male, but if there is one, than that is one too many. You may occasionally see the term HNG used instead of Poser. HNG stands for horny net geek, a male posing as female, in order to coerce a woman to engage in a cyber chat with them. Cyber chat is sexual in nature, a 'net encounter with another person. We cannot give any fast and hard advise on busting Posers here.
