Jeff has said my blog was "heavy on estrogen." Earlier this week Chris mentioned that my blog is "chick-intensive." This doesn't offend me -- I am, indeed, a woman, and evidently spark conversations for other women.
So I just scanned back through my March posts to see if I would label it as "for women only." No, not for women only, but I can see how it's not really "heavy on testosterone", either. Although _2_ of my posts were about sports (except one was about how much I hate baseball).
I do think that it's funny that in a moment of complete brain-fade and blog-block I posted a "What Color Green Are You" quiz, got 15 comments, all from women (about 12 of us a "very original" teal green!) but when I asked for help using my convection oven I got diddly -- other than some very valuable info from Laura! :-) Laura, you, of course, are NOT diddly!
Posts on language usage seem to bring the guys out of the woodwork (as it would the guy in my life, as well -- if he ever read my blog*), while posts about showing our children love seem to keep the guys away. hmmmmmm. . .
I guess blogs like mine are the "cocktail party" blogs -- where the guys gather on one side of the room and talk about. . . whatever it is they talk about (for Troy it generally has to do with firearms and hunting sites, for my father it has to do with anything with wheels) and the women gather in the kitchen and dining room and swap kid and childbirth stories (okay, I'm a woman and I really can't take that for more than about 22 seconds). I notice that some of the more "cerebral" blogs seem to attract a more diverse commenting crowd. No danger of this blog heading in that direction!
*Clarification: I do not think of Troy as less of a human OR husband for not reading my blog on a regular basis. He's heard it all before, several times, and if he hasn't, I fill him in!
