Not Again!

For days I 've been fumbling with something to say. And now I find my voice......
I am a feminist, to the core. Proudly so. And I ll prove why.

Was reading ET today, when I came across this article which said that blog readership has increased considerably in the last year. Reasons were many including the US presidential campaign on blogs and tsunami. So far so good.

Then the writer tried doing some research about bloggers. And he ends up saying, that bloggers are mostly, no wait he said, bloggers tend to be male ???!!?

Now what do I do if not fume at horribly ill reserched and grossly misleading statements like these. Anybody, damn ask anybody in the blogger comunity, and they wld know that there are as many active female bloggers as men.
Yet as per the age old tradition world over, a bunch of $#%^&&* tend to be the only one who are supposed to blog. eeeks!!

I ve nothing against men, but things like these bug me, and when bugged I scream.

At the same time check the article in Time which says that most bloggers are women.
"According to a survey of more than 4 million blogs by Perseus Development, 56% were created by women. More bad news for the boys: men are more likely than women to abandon their blog once it's created. "

Now u decide.
