I call this the "where you are is where you've always been" assumption. It can also be extrapolated into the future.

I think we all do it. Fortunately, when I'm reading on my Kindle nobody knows what I'm reading, so they can't judge me by that.

Some folks may think they want to read on an e-reader, but don't. Others try it and like it. For others it is just OK, they can read anything, anyway, anytime. In my family, these 3 types are exemplified by my daughter-in-law, son and granddaughter, respectively. All of whom have been gifted an e-reader.
