so Rachel is showing the videos about the pipe bomber

[drray23]

My wife immediatly says, its a woman. The gait maybe ? She just thinks that person is a female.
Maybe its Lauren Boebert 😆😆. I wish it was her or marjorie taylor greene. We could finally get them out of congress and directly into jail.

1. I thought it was a woman even from the first videos.

[spooky3]

2. Lots of people agree with her (who posted on the WaPo article in January). nt

[hamsterjill]

3. I think it's definitely a woman.

n/t

[onecaliberal]

4. It appears to me to be a woman as well. N/T

[underpants]

5. Are trash cans in DC smaller than the standard size?

The first thing I noticed was this persons size in relation to the trash cans they walk by.

[obamanut2012]

12. Yes, they are

Especially in the area they are in -- no idea why!

[underpants]

21. Probably line of sight for drivers or just reducing waste

People will create less waste or dispose of it differently if they can’t put it in a trash can.

[soothsayer]

6. Skinny dude I think

[obamanut2012]

13. I agree -- I'm not seeing a woman's gait at all

[soothsayer]

15. Very squared shoulders too, not that women can't have 'em

[BigmanPigman]

7. When the person sat down and looked over their shoulder

I said, "That seems like a woman to me". Glad to hear I'm not alone with this perspective.

[nocoincidences]

8. I thought it was a woman

as soon as I saw the first video. I don't know why, but something about the movement.

[canetoad]

9. Couldn't make my mind up

After viewing the first videos. This latest one - broad shoulders, wedge shaped torso. To me, a male shape. (Or a chinese swimmer)

Sorry - did I really say that.

[Behind the Aegis]

10. My husband and I are thinking the same.

The movement seems to favor female, IMO. Though, as someone who has been mistaken as female from behind, it is always possible it is a man, but I will not be surprised if the suspect turns out to be female.

[ms liberty]

11. I think so as well

It's the way the person moves. The swing of the arms, as well as some other movements and yes, the gait. I read many years ago that women's arms are hinged slightly differently than men's due to evolution and the need to carry babies; I have no idea if it is true or not, but I am sure someone here will be more than happy to correct me, lol. I don't use it as a definitive identifier, just as one clue amongst others.

14. I had the same reaction as your wife. I immediately had the impression because of the gate.

However, when the frontal view of this person was shown, I then questioned my initial impression.

At this point, I still feel like the gender is questionable. Could be a Woman. Appearance of flat chestedness is not determinative.

16. A man with a dog walks by very close at one point..

Probably doesn't remember much, but he might be traceable, as he'd live in the area.

[msfiddlestix]

18. I missed that, all my attention was focused squarely on the actions of the bomber

From the vantage point of my computer, the face was for me, too obscured with the mask. But then I do have vision issues and often miss the finer details especially of facial imagery.

[dawg day]

19. I bet other dog people in the area can recognize the dog

The dog walker might have automatically noted something like male or female, size,race, etc.

[msfiddlestix]

20. Laughed out loud with the title

I often recognize the dog being walked before I recognize the human walker.

I take your point though. I suppose agents working the case might be considering canvassing the neighborhood in aiding id.

17. Way too skinny to be Greene, she's a bit of a "deep-fried food 3x a day" physique

Boebert definitely fits.
