To be honest, I've been in fandoms where men were very few, and where for that sole reason, half of the women of the board treated them with more interest and *they* expected more interest and a special treatment - even though they weren't especially good contributors to fandom.

I find OP's behavior refreshing. And better spirited.

Besides, it's not like he did that on purpose. I've had people assuming I was male online because I thought it was obvious I was female from my pseudo. I've also thought some guy was a girl because fandom his online name was female (I realized later it was a pun about a character's name).

And it never was a big deal when the truth came out, because we never ventured anywhere close to romantic or sexual conversations. We did have long chats, mostly about fandom, and it was interesting and fun and what we were looking for. Gender mattered less to either of us than the content of those online relationships.

It still does.
