Having had a look at the public entries on your LJ and your webpage, I'm assuming you identify as male - many apologies if I've got this wrong.

Indeed.

It is my general experience from talking to/observing lots of male and female friends, that being able to filter out 'the opinion of anyone who judges by looks' is a lot easier if you're not being read as female, and judged on your success/failure at living up to conventionally feminine notions of beauty as a result.

Sounds highly plausible. Being (or if you prefer, identifying as) male has some definite upsides :-)
