You also probably have no idea the volume of attention that being openly female gets you on the internet.

Why would anyone have "no idea" about this? We're literally surrounded by women - moms, sisters, friends, wives - our entire lives. This is not some secret knowledge that men cannot grasp. Men know the score here, and have even intervened for our sisters or nieces when needed. I see stuff like this all the time online, it's absurd. Who do you think I spend most of my time with? Women. I came from a woman.

Because they don't have the lived experience?
Go give it a try. Its an eye-opener.

I'm well aware. One chooses how to present oneself. Do you know if I'm a woman? Do you think you don't know by accident? If I want my ideas to be heard they should be the focus of my communication, not any part of my identity.

That's not a thing that you can do on twitter where your gender is already public. It's not her that would be intentionally entangling her gender with the ideas that she's expressing, it's her that wouldn't be able to escape her gender being entangled with the ideas that she's expressing.
I'd venture to say that most racial/ethnic minorities try to stay within the pseudoanonymous assumption that everybody on the internet is a white man as long as possible. If you're posting on the internet as a public person, that's not an option.
