Anime fans! Go and tell this blog-blinkered individual that women who are also passionate anime fans exist!

*shaking head* Honstly.

Oh for god's sake, way to bias your own sampling, douchebag. "There aren't any female fans, because they don't do fandom the way I do it! And my way is the only way to be a REAL fan!"

Augh. AND he has the nerve to make qualifications and backpedalling moves, but he does it in a comment rather than as a top-level edit to the post. Smooth, dude. Smooth.

That, that! Seriously. Someone needs a base-course in statistical validity. And possibly to spend more time in the more intensively social-cooperative corners of fandom where people get acculturated to debate manners.

...that is extremely depressing. That is, like, Ryouhei levels of depressing.

*dryly* In the extreme.
