When I first got to fandom, I assumed most people were women and now I don't assume because I've been wrong a few times. It is interesting they thought you were a guy. I would wonder about the subjects you write but it seems that both men and women write about every topic more frequently these days but I guess there are still those preconceptions out there.
I haven't given much thought to how people see me or my work. I assume they realize that I'm a very specific type of writer by now. At least the ones who do know me, since I'm a fairly NNF and really that is how I prefer it. I don't think anyone hasn't assumed that I'm not a woman and I was relatively young when I started writing (late teens), which did come across. Some people are surprised I am Indian, but you wouldn't be able to figure that out from my fanfic anyway.
