Years ago, I realized something. As reading is my primary hobby (almost exclusively fiction), I spend a lot of time on websites/social media pages/YouTube channels, etc. about books. I log my reading on Goodreads, so I regularly use that site and app. This means I get lumped into the demographics for those sites/pages/channels browsers as it relates to online ads.
The short of it is I’m pretty sure the internet thinks I’m a girl.
I’ve always found it mildly amusing. Lately, it’s started to bother me. Is this something other male readers have run into? Is there a page/site that deals more with male readers? I’m not saying I want a list of “Most Macho” books or whatever, but I guess it’d be nice to feel seen as a part of the community.
What do you think?
