Legal Question


Defamation or False Light Claim?

If someone askes on a public blog if my name is ''Joe Bloggs'' but I am actually female in real life and my profile says so, do i have any course of action through Defamation or False Light?

Isn't the asker of the question, assuming and implying I'm male, when I'm female? Is this offensive enough?
