I think I'm not alone when I say that it's not necessarily a fear of harassment inasmuch as it is a fear of judgement on appearance that keeps some women from vlogging. Not all women who may want to video blog look like iJustine. But the popularity of iJustine, and many other young female vloggers, conveys the perception that vlogging is mostly for the young, pretty girls, not necessarily for older, geeky-er types like myself. Even though we have much to say and can say it well.
I still have to test this hypothesis, but have found it to be true on some level with blogging as well. There's still a whole bunch of nasty sexism out there. And fighting it can be tiring.
