I'm female! :3
I don't really put it out there that I have snakes unless I know the person I'm speaking to is comfortable with them.
My entire family and extended family hate snakes. Something about some Asian superstition that snakes are demons or bad luck, or whatever.
But when the situation calls for it, I will defend the reputation of a snake any day from ignorant haters.
My boyfriend is indifferent about my snakes. He does like my mojave a lot, but thinks all morphs look the same in general..... >_<;;
Here's a thread with a poll that asked the same question:
