I'd guess male, but if it's Southern, all bets are off.

southern accents
Being a Yankee who now lives in the south, I can relate! Had far more trouble with the southern dictators than with the foreign ones.
And yest, those British & Australian ones are sexy!
Un no, not Kiki...but I am southern! sm
 we all use those words down here...and by "thang" I meant like "aint nothing but a thang..." which means really not that important...just FYI...NOT Kiki...whoever that is...
do you mean Southern Transcription? nm

Southern Transcription Services
Any info on Southern Transcription Services would be helpful.
TIA
I prefer non-Southern accents
I'm from the south but lived out of the area for several years. My favorite accents are Northeast and MidWest. For a while I did MT for a hospital in rural Alabama where a resident from Cuba was working. He had acquired a number of southern altruisms that cracked me up with his thick Hispanic accent. I'll never forget when he treated an elderly woman who had received a rattlesnack bite to her foot through her "teenie shoes." (if I hadn't been from the south, I wouldn't have known he was referring to "tennis shoes!")
Once my dryer needed servicing and the repair man came out. After talking for a while I asked if he was from somewhere near southern Russia because of his accent. He got so excited that someone knew the geographic area of his origin! He was from a tiny little country bordering southern Russia! (one of my neurologists was from Russia). I love to try to place someone's accents

I have a bad time with southern accents too
Their words just sort of fall into one another and it seems like they put emphasis on the wrong part of the word, so I need to concentrate with them. The worst however is the Chinese accent by far. Especially when they do try to slow down and enunciate, it makes it worse.
I have noticed the southern accent. I like it. Don't like BO though. LOL. nm

Yes!! Matthew, hunky southern gentlman.
My mom is from the south. Thanks to that I have no problem with southern accents. nm

BellSOUTH (keyword)....8-9 southern states!!!.
southern, northern, eastern, western--sm
what difference does it make where anybody is from...how about being a *bleeding heart* for ALL life...not just human and not just animals. God gave everything that breathes life, and we should respect that. human or animal. JMO
I worked for Southern Transcription a while back.

I'm in southern NY, 2hrs. north of NYC. One of the helpers on MTD is from upper NY, too. nm

Algarve, southern Portugal, wonderful spas
easy access to ancient castles, Spain, the larger cities of Lisbon and Oporto, next door to Morroco, wonderful free seafood, beaches. I could go on...
I live in a small Southern town and they have posted pictures of sm
people convicted of passing bad checks in the newspaper. How humiliating would that be?
By posting the bad checks, they see your name, but by posting your picture, they could recognize who you are.
I was told 12 cents per line in Southern California was too high (sm)
They can stick it because they should be paying 18 cents per line.
There is too much EMR and offshoring around here.
Southern fried chicken. We're having friend over, too. I love it but
I can only eat fried chicken once in a while. Makin SMASHED (taters, eh?), blackeyed peas and green beans with pepper sauce.
My worst are both slow-speaking, hoarse-voiced Southern gentlemen.
Male MTs
I have been an MT for over 20 years. My hubby is unemployed and looking for new career options. He is checking into the MT schools and even talked to an employer today that hires ouf of a certain school. I have known very few men in this career field over the years, maybe 5 that I knew personally and counted as friends. I asked my boss when I first got into MT why we didn't have more men in the office doing MT. She said she thought maybe they just didn't know about it. Well now I am talking to my friends, and I have heard some of their husbands are checking into it. They like the idea of staying home to work and spending more time with their children. The few men that I have known over the years that did MT really enjoyed it as a career. I think it would be nice to see more.
male MTs
Michael, Michael, Michael - careful now. I have 2 nieces married to "beauticians" who BTW, nowadays refer to themselves as "stylists," and I'm quite sure neither of them is gay.
People have stereotypes about others - period.
I've been in this business a long time and I remember when male MTs were rare. I saw men come into the job for the same reasons women do - interesting work, independence, and of course the huge attraction of working at home, no office politics, etc.
BTW, Michael, if it "frosts" you butt, why did you use an emoticon with fire? (Just kidding you.)
I think it is a male...

Had to train my male (sm)
Started by keeping the box really clean with that nice scooping sand that they like. Then I would walk over to the box and say, here kitty, and invite him to go in.
After his pee pee in the box, he gets a treat!
We still have an occasional problem, but only when the box is dirty. The pee pee in the corner means he doesn't like that dirty box!
I never go to a male doc for this very reason. nm

The patient is a male
The doctor said: "He denies bloody or cloudy urine, pain with urination and vaginal bleeding."
I crack up laughing and quote this to my husband, stating the patient's gender.
And his response was, "I hope so."
(think about it) 
So where exactly is the male vagina?

MALE MT or FEMALE MT?
Who is better in the Medical Transcription? Men or women medical transcriptionists. I believe it has been a debate throughout decades who is better in this industry. Regardless of Race and regardless of Age. Let the battle begin... (hey its just for fun)  .
State your side: Age sex Location. No names Pls. and comments. Maybe Footonmyneck, SUN, Cheeseburger, Proud to be Indian, and the entire MT Stars gang can start it up. Its better than talking about outsourcing and MQ for a change.
Male MT or female MT
35-year-old female, AR
I don't as I know several straight male MTs...sm
just like I know some straight male nurses.
Ok, here's the Big Male Secret...
We want y'all to think we're helpless and can't do things so we can get out of doing stuff. It works, too! :)
Big Male Secret
It's not a secret, Rad Guy. We just let you think it is.
Go TAYLOR!!!!!.....AI wants a male to win!! n/m
I only see one picture of the male.....nm
male transcriptionists
I worked with one where we were paid $25 an hour - he would come in on Saturday and Sunday and milk the clock for 12-16 hours when there was only about 1-2 hours of work. This went on for a couple of years. Then I had another male MT as a supervisor and he was very nice and has always helped me to find work when I needed it. Different strokes for different folks.
One of the male MTs emailed me his pic. sm
I didnt know he was sending me a pic of his little willie. I didnt want to see a penis when I looked and then just ROFL @ it.
female vs male
I would rather listen to a male dictator as well, depending on how low his tone is. I do have one female that I do like. She is actually very good, very organized. What I do hate, with a passion, is a female ESL dictator. That is the worst of both worlds. Talk about REALLY not knowing what the heck they are saying!!!
47-year-old male - Kentucky!
Who do people assume all male MTs are gay?
Its not like we're BEAUTICIANS or FLORISTS or something! This really frosts my butt! 
you say it's wrong to assume male MTs are gay
but then you say, "Its not like we're BEAUTICIANS or FLORISTS or something!"
TALLY OF MALE/FEMALE MTS

Male: SEVEN (7)

Check in at: MALE MTs or FEMALE MTs
Pls read the rules
Definitely neuter him!! I have three male dogs and have had this...sm
problem as well. Our first male dog is a mixed Dachsund. He was very anxious and hiked on everything, especially when we were gone. Having him neutered helped calm him down and helped with the hiking. He is now 5 years old. We had him neutered at 2 years of age and he has never hiked since then. Also, he calmed down enough to be put in the bathroom when we leave! Our second male dog is a chocolate cocker spaniel. We had him neutered mainly because he was hiking to mark his male territory. Had him done around 1 year of age and he has never done it since. He has never had a problem with being put in a cage when we are gone, but neutering has calmed him down and taken away the hiking problem. OUr third male dog is a Cavilier King Charles Spaniel. He is 8 months old and getting neutered tomorrow! He has been doing the hiking thing to mark his spot in the chain! We are expecting him to do well and quit the hiking also!! I would definitely recommend neutering your doggie! I think it would help him in both the hiking and his anxiety. Good luck and lots of luv to your doggie!!!
Sure do !!! I have 2 Rotties, one male and one female...
The male is cool as a cucumber. The female on the other hand is in constant motion all the time even though I jog with each of them 30 minutes per day. It's not too bad when the SO is home to divert their attention. When he's not, they can drive me nuts....
Actually, you can tell a male from a female by the tail.
A male's tail is tapers to a much finer point than a female's (I don't know the difference if there is a rattle involved).
;op
The only male MT I've worked with is now ...
one of the MDs I transcribe for now. He worked as an MT for the same small service I did while he was going to school.
Nah...the male poster was more articulate than that!

Male friend age 73 had some tests done and x-ray
and doctor was amazed when he saw a blockage of the intestine. The friend is very "eccentric" and not knowledgeable about his health, so that is all I know as of today. When the doctor saw this blockage, he immediately called an ambulance (hospital just across the street), and he refused to go in an ambulance. Then he drove himself to the ER at the hospital and took all papers and x-rays. The ER was very busy with broken bones, etc., and he got tired of waiting and left, leaving his papers and everything on the desk. He told the doctor he would come back Monday, and he said "you may not live until Monday."
Can you help with what you would think could be this problem with his intestine. He is doing 3-day smear for blood now and to return them. Thank you for any information you may have. I am very worried about him.
I am indeed...an insensitive boob of a male. :) nm
And I agree that my post wasn't funny. There's nothing funny about MTs losing their jobs to offshore companies when I know by personal experience that those companies cannot and do not transcribe medical documents properly. This leaves only the 3-cent-per-line leftovers for us to add quality back to rotten documents.
Quite right! I'm not laughing at all, although it's a pity that satire seems to be high on the list of the Forum Police.
Actually I have heard of a male vagina - something to do with the prostate,
