"The Invisible Woman"
The Nation:
"That opinion writing is a kind of testosterone-powered food fight is a popular idea in the blogosphere. Male bloggers are always wondering where the women are and why women can't/don't/won't throw bananas. After all, anyone can have a blog, right? In the wake of the Estrich-Kinsley contretemps, the Washington Monthly blogger Kevin Drum mused upon the absence of women bloggers and got a major earful from women bloggers, who are understandably sick of hearing that they don't exist. "I'm staring you right in the face, Kevin," wrote Avedon Carol (sideshow.me.uk), "and even though you've said you read me every day you don't have me on your blogroll. It's things like this that make me tear out my hair when people wonder why women are underrepresented...." There are actually lots of women political bloggers out there--spend half an hour reading them and you will never again say women aren't as argumentative as men! But what makes a blog visible is links, and male bloggers tend not to link to women (to his credit, Kevin Drum has added nineteen to his blogroll). Perhaps they sense it might interfere with the circle jerk in cyberspace--the endless mutual self-infatuation that is one of the less attractive aspects of the blogging phenom"

Anmerkung: In der (deutschen) Blogosphäre schreiben des öfteren Journalisten, die die Kunst der Täuschung versuchen in der Absicht, das Blogfeld alleine zu besetzen. Was man nicht alles tut, um BlogLand zu besetzen. Ich fürchte jedoch, das ist vergebliche Liebesmüh. Jede/r Journalist, der keinen Hehl aus seinem Job macht, ist mir übrigens selbstverständlich als Informationsquelle willkommen. Es schreiben außerdem häufig Männer, die vorgeben, eine Frau zu sein. Sie geben in ihren Blogs dann ihre kuriose Ansichten über FRAU, und wie sie FRAU gerne hätten, zum Besten.
Leute, spätestens beim Thema Erotik und Sex macht Ihr Euch ziemlich lächerlich. Believe me! ;-))
