Perhaps change your name to Gentlepeople? It's not equal opportunity if you start out by giving the impression it's only for men.

Gentlepeople rather than Gentlemen and Gentlewomen is also more inclusive for those people who don't identify themselves as exclusively male or female (here's a very brief introduction to that concept if you're not familiar with it, and you might wish to follow some of the links). HabitRPG's players include some intersex/third gender/transgender people so being gender neutral in speech and group names avoids discriminating against them.

Gender-neutral language shows respect to all people, regardless of gender.
