In colleges here, there's a majority of women in CG. I know a
few of them and I never seem to get their attention when I talk about
the groups that I read and all I learn here. They don't doubt it ;
they're just indifferent. We can spend hours drawing side by side but
they really aren't loners.
        Marshall McLuhan said that the media is the message : most
women just don't get that you can maintain a relationship with a group
of people you essentially don't know. And newsgroups are pretty much
just like that.
