- iagooar 7y agoWasn't there a study that demonstrated that most males would imagine a person always being male first - unless the opposite would be proven?
- anchpop 7y agoI'm not sure, but I (male) definitely do and my girlfriend does the opposite
- Wildgoose 7y agoI think the picture of the author (clearly female) is the give-away, but the name "Evelyn" isn't because it is one of those names (e.g. "Lee") that are applied to both men and women.
- adrianratnapala 7y agoYep. Though admittedly it belongs to the category: names I'd have thought were exclusively women's except I heard of just this one dude. My list is: * Evelyn Waugh * Vivian Richards * Marion Barry
- pfortuny 7y agoThe only Evelyn that comes to my mind is “Waugh”...
- FabHK 7y agoOops, looks like I was not only careless, but biased there! Sorry.
