Writing Under a Pen Name
This Article about why James Chartrand chose his male pen name despite being a female in the meat world is very informative.
Sad.
Frustrating.
But informative.
Interestingly, back when I was less open with details in my life, most of my readers assumed I was male. This despite the fact that according to the Gender Genie, my posts are all over the place.
After taking a look at its results more than a few times, I tend to think the Gender Genie's results are too closely correlated with topics. Travel and food posts like my last one often end up slightly more "female" than "male," while posts like the one three posts ago mentioning research and statistics come back almost twice as "male" as "female."
As cool as that might be, my gender has not swapped in the time period between these two entries in the meat world...
And yet, as they say, On the Internet, No One Knows You're A Dog.
