If you give priority to sob stories over live telecast and can put up with delayed broadcasting, you probably have a some feminine wiring in your brain.
I actually missed watching a few Olympics because of the human interest stories preceding every darn event. "Joe Blow is playing this Olympics for his second cousin twice-removed who went to the hospital for a torn hangnail." Then they'd show a scene of Joe weeping over his cousin's dreadful torn hangnail. That got tired real quick, and I figured out that they were doing it for the female audience.
