Girls and Guys Blogging Together

Who blogs the most? Men? Women? Teenagers of either sex? After reading Vicki's entry, I know who likes to blog the most. And the results were somewhat surprising.

According to the article Women and Children Last: The Discursive Nature of Weblogs men apparently blog much more than women about personal subject. I'm not so sure about this one. I'm not sure many men blog about their personal feelings for fear of one of their coworkers stumbling across it at work. While I know some do, and that's great, I think women are more prone to personal blogging. Women want to get everything out and let everyone know about it. I guess we are just more open than men.

The article also mentioned female teenage bloggers. It makes sense that teenagers would gravitate toward blogging. What an outlet to express feelings! Teenage girls love to share their personal trials (however petty they might be) with the world so they can receive feedback. I know if I had blogged as a teenager, I would have loved to come home and see the "loving" comments about my latest rant.
