There’s no reason male Less Wrong ers couldn’t be drawn out individually in the same way; I only phrased it that way to keep it germane to the topic. If we had individual profiles on which we could sum up our relevant interests/activities, for instance, I could put in a little non-intrusive box “I am writing a paper on why the Reflection Principle is stupid for school” and somebody interested in the Reflection Principle could say “hey, Alicorn, do you feel like crossposting the précis of your paper here on Less Wrong? I’d like to read it.” I’d be more comfortable sharing something like that at someone’s request than I would just posting it on my own initiative, but there would be nothing stopping someone else of any gender from being solicited to make another post on another subject.
