Study: "Women beat men in web browsing"
An Anonymous User writes, "If you want to see an example of statistical semantics to fit a particular agenda, then read this BBC article which features the title "Women beat men in web browsing". The basis for this claim is that women use their time online more "purposefully" - the examples being "shopping, organising travel, banking, and sending e-greeting cards" (!). Men's lack of "purposeful" use of the web include "browsing, reading content and downloading software"."Source: BBC [UK News Network]
