Actually, given the blatant misogyny frequently on display on 
this forum, about 51% of the world's population - literally most 
of us - have a perfectly understandable reason to maintain some 
level of anonymity in this community.

It is nice to have a consistent pseudonym for matching up forum 
posts with irc with github etc., but let's not make this a 
requirement.
