Ok so a poll has shown that women are far more interested in gadgets than many first thought; huge pat on the back for coming up with that conclusion ten years too late.
Frankly we are disappointed that our sister site Gizmodo had to go to such great lengths for this to come out.

Yes there is still a gender divide in some industries such as hair and makeup, (how many guys know what GHD stands for?) and cars (how many girls blame their other halves for the smell a catalytic converter makes?). However, the technology gap is closing as quickly as your other halves wallet when he see’s the price of the Gucci bag you want.

Gizmodo is definitely on the right tracks when it comes to girls and the gadget market and guys should take note of their wise words- pink is patronising and mentioning menstrual gadgets (do they even exist?) will give you more slapped cheeks than pats on the back.

What guys and gadget sites need do to do is give us a bit of TLC- Technology Loving Comments.
We can’t deny we don’t like pretty shiny things, what girl doesn’t? But instead of lumping us with products that are fluffy and cute, treat us the same as you would the guys and give us comments that relate directly to the technology of the product rather than the exterior. If you do this we are far more likely to read it and listen to our other halves when they talk to us.

To the men who complain that their other halves don’t have an interest in gadgets, if you let us play with them once in a while without moaning about us scratching the screen or pressing the buttons too hard, and spent as much time with us as you did playing the latest game then maybe, just maybe, we would begin to respect rather than resent the world of technology.

And one last thing- to those guys who shy away from admitting they are gadget geeks we think its more sweet than freak so stop hiding behind your lager lout mates/disguises and talk technology.
