Ah. yes.
So,
anthère would be acceptable for another user than me (well is actually acceptable since that is the case)
but
ant'here would not be acceptable ?
?!?
You may have noticed that I tend to be one of those people here who enjoys playing with words. :-) To say that we do not accept ant'here is very close to saying "qu'on accepte pas de fourmis ici".
As for RK's difficulty with your gender, on the one hand we have the fact that "anthère" is a feminine noun in French to represent the male part of a plant, as does the corresponding English "anther". No wonder he's confused!!! :-)
