but we've probably just given you a nice 'male geeks paranoid,

suspicious when queried about relations with female net-users' story

instead. D'oh!


anecdote:


I used to find that saying I worked on the internet would kill

conversations at parties stone dead about 4 or 5 years ago. On one

occasion the woman actually just turned around and walked off, without

even an 'oh, how nice, goodbye' 


This seems to be changing, or maybe I just <ALERT="geek stereotype">
