Support. I am female although this has almost never happened to me, not sure why though. Many servers that I've tried were short-staffed and died out quickly. The only thing that identifies me as a female is my username (my skin is custom-made and created to hide gender because I want it to).
Also for the kitchen joke, this is something I think of when guys state it:
I guess they wouldn't mind staying out of the house and staying in the outdoors doghouse for a long while...
The server that I'm playing on is pretty mature although we do joke around. The guys do respect us (1/3 Admins is female, I'm a Semi-Admin, a couple other females is banned/demoted for other reasons for fairness sake); if they (including staff) do not then they suffer the wrath (well, a hammer to the face) of the whole staff... Or at least most of the staff. Feel free to drop by (avoiding posting server info as OP does not want advertising). I'm pretty sure at least some servers also have the same rules in place; by some other posts it seems like it.
Edit: For any of whom who wonders why I'm supporting, it is because some people just do not learn. Yes, many posts before mine are true (male and female posters alike). The main problem I have is people treating me special in-game just because I'm female, whether it is poorly or as a diamond in a haystack. Yes, on a server I do remember someone harassing me by griefing and killing my animals (a long while ago) and all they got was a ban which they appealed very poorly and was accepted; they returned to harass me and I left the server for I know it'll die... Probably already did die around then due to a bunch of their staff leaving even though it was a new-ish server.
Anyways, I do believe that the harassment due to females finding servers that do not watch over this type of stuff is only part of the reason finding females in Minecraft is difficult. Sometimes it's over-reaction or something else of which all parties, guys gals servers players alike, needs to treat each other fairly.
I live in the west (PST),
-I have a mic
-I have skype, but it's more-or-less for personal stuff. For games I'd go with vent...
-Define: awesome.
-I've finished most of solo-skyblock
-I can act childish, but I'm serious around many things.
I like the sound of Cauldrons since ingredients added in doesn't have to make sense. Brewery stands making beer will make my friends and me happy as we have a small pub and doesn't really do much else or so I feel.

How long have you played Minecraft: Started just after Beta was released.
So far 1.9 is a pre-release so I'll just see what others say. Minecraft is in Beta so I'll just see what there is to fix. Right now everything that needs to be critisized is already in complaint threads and in proper threads (by proper I mean this one).
Honestly, most of the mods I've seen so far are absolute garbage. Millenaire, for example, makes the game interesting for about 2 minutes and gives you a way to trade and be a little more "economic focused" in SSP.. But the things you can do are extremely limited, and the NPCs themselves are very dumb and use a lot of tricks to get around that.
Even if you try to destroy the NPCs, they just respawn. They don't rebuild or fight back.
Aether looks alright, but some elements are pretty cheesey and out of place in Minecraft.
Oh, and hey, this is supposed to be "constructive criticism" not "Q.Q my mod no workz for 2 days when new version comes out". Don't update till your mod is updated -.-
I found a good number of the mods I've tried to be interesting. There are always things that can be improved or added, but if you don't like it make your own mod and see if others like it or not... If you want a serious game go to WoW or something (or that farm game that is made so you always will lose). Also, if you make backup your save before updating to the new version you can just no go into that world to destroy your progress and go into another world or something in the meantime (or go modless in general) and make do with what you have.
Well, I dislike the egg idea and favor the baby animals (cute!!! hopefully). Different genders seem interesting as well.
To prevent overbreeding:
-as posted above by numerous others, feed 2 of the same animal (different genders required?).
-limit of 1 baby per female in... let's say 60 MC nights?
-babies require... let's say 60 MC nights to grow into adulthood? (possibly genders are random after reaching adulthood?)
Solve problems here (since Notch reads the forums) to push Mojang into making it happen. = possibly faster updates/more coding done = almost everyone happy?
Also, I'm not really a programmer but from what I know of reusing code in the hierarchy format reduces code and therefore reduces process time for searching for things (as it's easier for computers to search) and equals less lag (which everyone complains about from time to time, such as if you don't have the latest gaming computer). Reduced codes allow easier debugging (from my limited experience) and may make many people happy. For people whom dislike code recycling, out of curiosity are you actually working with the code for mods/bandaid-fixes? This paragraph may require some programmers' knowledge.
I find there are valid points in both, but I think it should be toggle-able at least for now.
I also find it extremely difficult to obtain food without animal breeding (often have to hunt if playing solo) as bread does not fill up alot of hunger. The main food source for the first few days may be meat but then players have to either become nomadic or built a farm on the first day as a settler. Being nomadic may require luck while being a settler requires some form of plan and luck. Due to what I hear about world generation (vast ocean biome spawning, now being fixed in 1.9 or so I hear) there's an even higher possibility of players starving. Early times in a world basically relies on wheat and a finite amount of meat. If players become unlucky enough to get stuck in a giant ocean biome then as of 1.8.1 there is a very tiny chance of survival. 1.9Pre-release may be subject to chance drastically so I won't go there.

I'm curious how exactly you'd do this due to the number of resources for actual lumbermills and forges.
My friends (well a few) and I have a private server which we've gone legit and started out with only one building. Used it as more like a tiny loghouse. We built a farm quickly and went on to resource gathering. We've built an apartment/condo and improved our renewable reasources and built a wall to ward off most aggressive spawns... Lots more things are a work in progress.

on my server (private) I found that some buildings had rain while others didn't. Oddest thing is that the only one without rain glitches (in my knowledge) is generally built the same as another one that had the glitches.

My 2 cents.

I haven't checked Singleplayer just yet.
