So...I had a weird thought today when I was responding to an email from someone, in that I found myself assuming the person I was responding to was a woman. Which, granted, I try not to do (usually I obliquely try to hint/ask) but usually end up doing anyway for efficacy's sake.

But that led me to wondering and then realizing, yeah, of course, there must be some guys out in slash fandom who might not want to identify themselves as male even if they are, because they might get treated as oddities or alien, and it's easy to be anonymous online.
