Female authors??
Posted: Mon Dec 01, 2003 2:01 pm
I can't seem to find a place on the Message Board to post this question, so I've decided to put it here. If you think it doesn't fit this particular section, please forgive me.
My wife and I have a question that has been plaguing us for quite awhile now, and we thought it would be of interest to other members of the Archive.
Our question is this:
"Do you believe any of the authors of the stories in the EA are female, and if so, how many?"
Between the two of us, we've read hundreds of the stories here, and it's our opinion that at least 99% of the writers are of the male persuasion (at least, they were born that way). I'm not as good a judge of such a thing as she is, but even I can recognize that several authors having female usernames are probably male.
My wife says there was one story she read about a year ago, supposedly written by a woman, in which the plot line was that the author had been introduced to a club of bisexual and/or lesbian women. There was a guillotine in the back room at the club, and some of the women would bring their husbands or lovers there to be neutered or nullified. The story tells of the author's progress in introducing her husband to the concept of nullification, and then taking him to the club and doing that to him.
My wife is able to cite several clues in the story that have convinced her that the writer is really a female, and since I can't refute her, I have to accept her opinion as valid. She thinks that virtually all of the other stories were written by males.
How about it, folks? What's your guess? Certainly not earth-shaking stuff, but an intriguing mind game.
