Testosterone World

I've been watching the "CSI" marathon on Spike TV the past couple of nights and have noticed the overwhelming marketing campaign dripping with testosterone. I, not having that particular gene that makes me drool when I see the latest video game, pin-up girl, booze or grilled burger find it all rather a sad reflection of how our society views the male of the species. For one, I find it interesting that the marathon is taking place on a "mens network" at all! I have found over the years that a) women can stand the sight of blood, gore, and all forms of bodily waste much better than men can and b) despite "blond jokes" we can be logical and intelligent too. Just a thought.
