I'm a Ruby developer who never uses Rails, and I think this is a major problem. It makes it hard for me to embrace "Ruby developer" as a career path because that means I'll be typecast as a Rails dev, and I don't want to use Rails.

It's hard enough trying to be a professional male programmer under 50 without being pandered to as a mountain dew swilling minecraft playing hoodie wearing brogrammer, so for sure adding Rails to the mix is just asking to be typecast.
