But still, I'll be the first to admit it's possible that since this is Ohba, who loves writing mysteries, writing female characters that way is a charade to make us think Ohba's a man, when he's really a woman..
You're assuming the expressions of the characters are representation of the author's views.
Do you know what Ohba's thoughts are? No. So you have no more grounds to make this claim than me saying otherwise.
In general, its' dangerous to think this way, and you're simply jumping the gun for no good reason.
So I'm gonna label your "OHBA IS SEXISSSSTTT" a paranoid delusion. For now.

Btw, Ohba being a woman is an unconfirmed rumor.
Ohba being Gamou is also an unconfirmed rumor, but with insane amounts of evidences.
I could write an essay about it, in fact, people can be found guilty on less evidences than this in court.

So my bet is on him being male.
