Question!

[divalea]

For those who've met me in person:

Why do boys in their 20's and 30's like to talk to me a lot? I'm not complaining, heavens no, I LOVE IT. I'm just puzzled. Got a kid in tow, who sings constantly, goofy hair, and not posessed of slimness.

Anyone?

Honestly, you're cool, pretty, and draw purty.

I have yet to meet you.

um... BLUUUUUUUSH!

You are cute, funny and talented. Do we need more of a reason?

[leborcham.livejournal.com]

Uh, you're vivacious, knowledgeable, attractive and funny as hell?

Jeez, I dunno.

Maybe we're all thrilled to see an uber-talented strong woman who's not afraid to stand up to the good ol' boy culture of comics?

Nobody is more popular among gamers than girls, remember, xenophobix loudmouths aside.

Dude, xenophobix is totally gonna be a huge white-power boy band. Thank you, LJ typos.

Enough drifting. It's because awesome simply drips off you. I know this, and I haven't even come within the requisite 15 mile radius to get a coolness contact buzz. I can feel it from the eastern seaboard.

You're fun to talk to, and your attitude projects hotness.

Speaking as somebody in his 30s who enjoyed speaking to you at CAPE last Spring. :)

Well, you are a very sharp witted conversationalist, you are rather attractive, and you've got some inner style. As someone who has spent 24 hours with you, I can say you're a pretty cool package.

Yeah, don't listen to any of these guys - I'll tell you the REAL truth.

It's your warm and loving chest - your tatas, your HUGE tracts of land.... face it, guys like boobs. Plain and simple.

Hey, I liked that part too. Plus the fact that you're cute, funny and well, I don't know if guys like that part but I sure do.

I am so flagging this entry for the next time I'm feeling down.

You all are so great for answering my silly ass question.

Because in addition to being willing to talk to us strangers, yer also pleasant to be around.

Hmmm... I was in my 30s when I met you at Otakon. You are a cool person to talk to and a talented artistwriter.

Y'know, it occurs to me that this might be considered the logical analog of what often happens to talented male creators. Nobody ever asks too many questions when creative, energetic male creators are surrounded by gawping females. Maybe you're just demonstrating that there is a comparable analog for women; that a creative, original talent such as your own can be every bit as attractive to men as a nice body or a pretty face, and certainly lasts longer.
