avreliaIt came to my attention that Buffy fandom has an inordinate amount of lawyers (future, past, and present) in it.
I can think of three possible explanations:
1) I notice them (birds of a father and all that), and they take a prominent position in my mind, but not in reality.
2) The amount of lawyers in the fandom represents proportionally the amount of lawyers among the general population.
3) The fandom attracts freaks of nature.
What is your opinion?

But I, of course, tend to note lawyer-types in particular in the fandom, so in a way, choice #1 also applies to me.
