DA

I think it's complete bullshit interesting that the two formats that women comics readers tend to prefer--digital and trades--are also the two formats that aren't counted when determining how well a title's selling. I'm not calling this a conspiracy or anything; but I do think that if it were male comics readers leading this shift in buying habits, the industry would be far more likely to change their data sources for sales figures.

AYRT. Huh. I didn't think about it in those terms. I don't know if it's so much latent sexism as it is part of inherent "we don't want no new people!" attitude that seems to pervade the comics industry. Which tends to go hand in hand with sexism, sure. But I think it's just that concept that some geeks seem to have of other (especially new) geeks "doing it wrong" if they do anything at all differently from Times Gone By.
