Study Shows Girls Ahead of Guys
Ayman — March 31, 2008 — Pop Culture
Until now, men have been the dominant gender in all things geek. But a new published report called Women and Digital Lifestyles from Solutions Research Group claims that women are now ahead of men in activities like streaming network TV, DVR use, and casual gaming.
The report divulges that 15% of women surveyed said they stream network TV shows form TV sites compared to 11% of men. Another slap in the face of men, 70% of women say they played a PC game last month vs. 69% of men (at least the men's number is cooler and wins the sexy number battle).
Men, we need to regroup, reorganize and reclaim our position!
