They left out the cassowary in the gender thing. :(

The females mate with the males, lay eggs then bugger off forever. The males then raise the chicks on their own. Apparently some dinosaurs did the same.

Got to love the stereotype-busting awesomeness of a black female metal fan.

Just seen a really good article about being a clever woman and thought it might be good for your next The Blood Is The Life

Hope you don't mind the linkspam!

Yeah, I can just see all the "would you like some cheese with that whine" and worse comments she must have had to moderate, too.

Also: don't feel bad for giving me recs! Recs are good!

Yeah, she must be getting some pretty harsh comments, because cthulu forbid, a woman is blogging about being clever on the internet and therefore must be taken down a peg or five.

On the subject of women blogging, thanks for the link to the Yuki-Onna post about the Chris Priest rant. Very, very interesting and the comments (well the 100 or so I read) were mostly supportive. I just can't stand the culture that considers it acceptable to threaten women who dare to blog.

Will send you more links as and when I find them, it's good to have someone to send them out to the wider world!
