And as far as the football thing, I do know many women out here who know and love the game, but the default is to assume that it is a man that one is conversing with when speaking of the game on the Internet.
And that's another reason I love conservatives: a liberal woman would have been offended, but you were not.
I'm the one glued to the game and last time I checked I was a woman....My husband is working on parts for his 'Vette and keeping me company.
