Gender Stereotypes

May 02, 2008 11:23

Okay, I realize that I'm not a "typical" girl (I do have my girly moments), but I was rather annoyed by this article. I can understand (to an extent) the need to 'decompress' in a 'mancave' ... but these 'mancaves' sound like something I want!!!! I mean a TV to watch sports and play video games uninterupted? All my sports memorbilia in one place ( Read more... )

Chris and I have our room planned. We're even looking at a house that has a spot for it. We'll have a big screen TV and the Wii down there, but the coolest part will be that it will be our sports den. The walls will be painted with logos from our favorite teams - Cardinals, Blues, Indians, and Browns.

But we're definitely going to share it, because we both love sports.

That's what I'm talking about! I already own 2 big screen TVs, so I'm ahead of the game! :) Now all I need is a dedicated room (which will most likely require a different house!).

We looked at a house the other night that has an unfinished basement that will be perfect. It's in foreclosure, though, so we can't put a contract on it until we have a contract on our house.

Sounds perfect! Good luck with that.

Don't behavioral stereotypes based solely on gender just suck?

My point exactly! :)

I need a good B&B session. When ya gonna be in this area again?

rokitwoman May 3 2008, 01:45:37 UTC

I'll be going through that area next weekend, but my folks and I will be headed down to Houston. After that, depending on what happens on the job front, I might have to take 2 full weeks off work (without pay) in June (this would re-set my per diem). If that happens, I'm planning on getting some stuff done at my house in TX, but I expect I'll be back up in OK at some point during that time.
