Just a further note on my sports/tv ranting. As a female, I do not mind watching a good football..basketball game..whatever have you, I just get frustrated with the male species insists on watching sports for hours and hours...while...let's say different programming that may be preferential to females is ridiculed, etc. If I sit there and watch..something I don't enjoy..such as a baseball game..or a golf tournament..then my male counterpart (when and if they may ever come along in a more permanent presence) can sit still for an hour of my programming selection. This being said there are limits to this of course...I am not going to make anyone..let alone of male companion be forced to watch my soap operas..or a show clearly of only female interest. However, more neutral shows should be watched with minimal moaning. That is all I am saying.
