Of course, there are plenty of
women using
ambiguous or
male pseudonyms online, to avoid being besieged by
men, so they can do whatever it is that they are on the
Internet to do in the first place. (This probably contributes to the amount of
attention those who are willing to admit to being
female have. But presumably those who continue using identifiably female names don't object to the attention.)
There is a small but appreciable number of men who think that being female and saying anything remotely sex-positive online constitutes asking for all sorts of propositions. No one from Everything has done this, but I've gotten mail from guys who saw my web site and sent me propositions for group sex, or who started conversations and then were angry and offended when I said no, I wouldn't go out with someone I only know from a total of two e-mails.
So I approve of moJoe's strategy. Let the jerks be deceived; maybe if they find out the truth they will learn some manners.
