I don't want to confuse this suggestion with the Estrogen Month voting (see the post below) so maybe someone else wants to take this ball and run with it. If your blog is on Blogspot, here's my idea to suggest to your readers during Women in Blogging Month:
* Hit the "Next Blog" button at the upper right corner (on the bar that Blogger installs on all Blogspot blogs).
* Take note of the blog you get, then hit "Next Blog" again.
* Keep doing this until you reach a blog that's either in a language you don't understand or is blocked by password protection or somesuch. In past "Next Blog" searches I've found that's usually about a dozen or fewer clicks.
* How many of the blogs you viewed were done by women, how many by men, and how many by someone of indeterminate gender?
Just a nice consciousness-raising exercise. I miss doing CR stuff, I used to do it all the time in college. Of course at the time some of us were naive enough to believe we wouldn't still need to be doing it 25 years later...
