I've always wondered about women who have had to use male pen names in the past, and nobody really knew until their works became successful. |
I certainly am unaware of a way to determine gender from reading the written word. I do know that some males have written romance novels from the feminine perspective and some female authors have had male pen names and written as if their primary characters were male.
