I started reading this thread, was going to add a comment, and then reached Pauls reply. I agree with him, that it's probably the housewives (also not derogatory), or people who (for whatever the reason) are home most of the day, who can contribute most. I "look in" during working time, in coffee breaks, and while waiting for the computer to process stuff, but if I'm really busy, then I don't ! And when I get home, or weekends, I've usually had enough of computers !!

Hi Baz, I think I might have the answer for you, Is it because not many men can think and type at the same time :o) hehe Lynda lol

I've just had a similar chat with my rather chatty bros in law lol! Generally women do take over and the men take a back seat ( any thing for a quiet life lol) Much happiness Debi

No offence taken! Mm, I remember starting a thread in a similar vein, wondering why it seems more ladies than gentlemen post threads and answer them. Wouldn't it be fun if all the subscribers tried to post threads?! Joy

I guess there's a few reasons. More women have more spare time during the day ("housewifes" - I don't say that in a derogatory way, it's just fact). Plus - women talk more - it's a generalization maybe, but it's pretty much scientifically proven. Those of us blokes that like to chat must just be a little more in touch with our feminine side :) Paul

See many men,adding to the threads, in contrast to all the ladies and their girly talk ( no offence meant ladies ) Does this mean, the women have commandeered the computer, ?
