Why would I be able to identify headshots of female CEOs? Outside of Gates, Jobs and maybe Zuckerberg, I couldn't identify any male tech leaders by face.

One thing that I always find interesting is when I follow a tech blogger whose work I've read for years on Twitter, and finally see what they actually look like. People in technology are names and ideas to me.

I can't even name the male ones. Unless they are in the news often I don't pay attention.

The test is pretty easy if you pay attention to the backgrounds of the images.
