Here's an unusual test

In a here-to unrevealed factoid, Null is a guy. This is hardly a surprise, as most geeks are guys.

Every now and then, Null will meet up with someone of the opposite sex (as Null is currently single). Null never actually calls and/or contacts this member of the opposite sex after the meeting though unless they contact Null first.

The reason for this is very simple - people are people. If you subscribe to everything being "the man's job" in terms of follow up then you're probably in need of a bit of introspection. If not, then you're genuinely not interested. Either way is ok, and leads to the same outcome - good for them!

Just go after what you want, and disregard what you don't - it won't hurt.
