4. LOL! That's your memory of me? :P (and to answer the implied question: no, not secretly a lesbian, sorry. ;p i like guys rather a lot, actually, they just... don't ever tend to like me back, and so i'm quiet about it, and romance in general.)
5. Um! Hmm. Because sci-fi (and fantasy) are far more interesting than real life? And because I enjoy seeing people triumph against all odds, which is at heart the basis behind every genre I like (or at least the books within a genre I like.) Not to say that I don't sometimes enjoy books where the good guys don't win, because I sometimes do, it's just that that's usually a more... hmm. Intellectual interest? I like seeing how the writer does it, but I don't get as viscerally attached to the book and there's a good chance I'll never read it again. The books where the good guys win are far more likely to end up being my favorite books. --And then, of course, there's the fact that I just like reading about people having adventures in general.
