Why does this happen? I get spam emails for Viagra and penis enlargement all the time.
What if I don't want my penis enlarged?
What if I think it should be reduced? There are never any pitches for penis reduction.
Of course this also means that the groups spamming me assume I am male. At least that is my assumption. Because if they didn't assume wouldn't I also be getting spam for breast enlargements or botox or something stereotypically female?
A friend told me its my own fault because of all the strange places I visit in search of fic. Okay. I read a lot of fic, but I don't think the journals I visit can be classed as strange. And even if they were it still wouldn't make sense. Statistically aren't most writers and readers of fan fiction - especially slash - female?
If the spammers think I'm female, do they think I might be interested in enlarging a penis I have a proprietary interest in? The women makes these decisions? Again with the not making of sense.
I promised myself I wasn't going to lower my expectations any further this year. May have to revisit that.
