All sorrows can be borne if you put them into a story. Tell me a story.

gaming, nerds and male privilege.

I thought this was an answer to favorite Christmas smell.

Has this been posted here? The Punk Rock Advent Calendar. It's the highlight of my day.

Is buying a strap-on like buying an external hard drive?

No, no. A penis is an essentialist item. You either have it or your don't. If you don't then your opinions are moot. You can't just go and buy the kind of authority that comes with a penis.

Dang!

...what if it's purple and sparkly?

I saw that article last night, and was reduced to tears by it.

Kids with the middle name Danger! I know a little girl who is Maxine Danger [lastname]. The best part is that her mom's last name is Danger.

Favorite Christmas smell? Baking gingerbread.

Most probably not a penis. A Real Penis (tm) only comes in fleshtone.

We'll be making a giant Gingerbread man cookie this weekend. The TJ's one that comes as a kit.

Tonight however, we hie off into the dark to attend JZ's office party.

Oh, crap! Well, oh, good, really... David and JZ's hieing reminded me that I think I have a concert to go to tonight... and I have no idea what time. I should look into that. At least I know where. Wow. Brain holey.

I'm a fan of the mulled cider smell. Can't think of one I don't like that I particularly associate with Christmas at the moment, but I'll think about it.

Some people tried to explain to me that there were as many female genre and/or nerds as male. And then they treated me like I was mansplaining. It was really surreal. Just because LJ is full of female slash fans...no, it's still a man's world, in terms of numbers and volume of yelling.

Hmm. I do think it depends on how wide you throw your net, though. If the definition of "genre" includes urban fantasy & anime/manga and Twilight, not to mention various fantastic tv properties, I suspect there's a rough equivalence.

Somewhere I bookmarked a study on SF/fantasy fans, which indicated that the readers in the two categories, put together, was about equal, gender-wise.
