I had been meaning to discuss this on my own blog but it fits in so well with the roll everyone’s on here. Listening to NPR last week, I heard author Mark Bittman discussing comments he gets back from his newspaper column on cooking. He said he had found an interesting difference between comments from men and from women, that men want to challenge him (“you’re an idiot”) or add to/tweak what he’s doing, while women’s comments are more of the admiring/”I like what you’re doing” sort. https://main7.net/%ec%b9%b4%ec%a7%80%eb%85%b8%ec%82%ac%ec%9d%b4%ed%8a%b8%ec%b6%94%ec%b2%9c/
