You know how a lot of LJ media fandom is heavily skewed toward the female side of the demographic? I have evidence that this has affected my preconceptions. I started reading this non-LJ blog, and despite multiple commenters referring to the blog owner as "he," and despite the completely obvious picture of a man in the header, I was convinced that the blogger was a woman. Because apparently in my brain, "blogger" is default female.
In other news, I apologize for being not here much lately. I'll try to work on that.
