Gender bias follows us everywhere we go even in this virtual world. I got a valuable comment from a "male" well wisher that my blog should only contain stuff related to women.
I asked "what do u mean by women stuff".
He said “stuff like clothes, recipes, kids etc”. (It left me speechless for a moment).
