Answer 3

I think it happens to everyone. The asker chooses an only OK answer over a much better. If that was my Q I would have picked your answer. Sometimes people pick their contacts/friends regardless if other answers are much better. It could have even been that they simply choose the female avatar answer over your male avatar answer. Very silly but I suspect sometimes people are gender-biased when picking a BA.
