Funnily enough, the only thing this comment thread has inspired for me is a desire to teach everyone the difference between “men” and “women”

Good post. Very true points, I can imediatelly relate it to how my wife and I shop; I mean, she shops and I’m buying stuff

Sometimes I think I just do need to be that proactive when buying clothes for instance

Also I can say as I could observe women use discussion boards, forums and IMs to help themselves (actually, each other…) shopping right. What I also noticed was that men also like to go social about stuff but only a f t e r they buy it, mostly with light flavor of boasting

cheers men and women of the World! Be different and mutually benefit each other

Hey Linda,

Yeh, I knew what you meant with the original “hunter/browser” analogy.

I guess I just wanted to make the point about avoiding “gender stereotyping”, and do that in a short response.

Some of us, after all, could talk about this stuff all day and love it. (lol)

Just a quick question, how do you find out the gender of your audience? I mean its uncommon to see a question about gender during the checkout process. Do you make educated guesses base on the customers’ names?
