Ok, most of the article goes, uhm, no where. It is, after all, called "Girl Talk." But this one line cracked me up. "Katherine Bischoping, replicating research from 1922, found the percentage of women's conversation about work and money had climbed from 4 percent to 37.5 percent in 1990. I would hope this doesn't mean women will soon obsess over the Mets vs. the Braves, the Infiniti vs. the Lexus, the new Palm Pilot vs. the Compaq Ipaq."
Well, at least PDA's are seen in the same strata as baseball and car discussions.
