I wrote before about the blog Libertarian Girl in which a guy pretended to be a beautiful blonde recent college graduate, but his hoax was revealed when one of the blog's readers discovered that the picture of Libertarian Girl was actually taken from a "Russian brides" website.
The author of Libertarian Girl was neither the first nor last person to use this classic scam. Benjamin Franklin did it.
Now it has been uncovered that the supposedly female blogger behind the blog Underneath Their Robes is actually a guy by the name of David Lat. He/she has some further comments.
The unanswered question here is are there any successful female bloggers who are not men pretending to be women?
I have it on good authority that the Harriet Miers blog was written by a woman (though I have to admit that it wasn't her). Mine is written by a man (though it also isn't me).
