Boys like to talk to boys cos they know the male stuff other guys are into. Girls like to talk to girls for the same reason. It's no surprise to me that boys will answer a girls question to the accompanying males face. I used to get the same thing when I went into mother care with my wife. I'd ask a question and my wife would get the reply! It cuts both ways.
The problem is, girls in general just arn't that interested in techie type stuff. They are as welcome to read techie type publications as any male, it's just that I get the impression girls, in general, are more interested in the look of a thing and not so much the functionality. Sadly though, guys are going the same way.........
