As I've said before, I appreciate discussions about racial and gender diversity in the blogosphere. However, those who ignore the very real accomplishments of female bloggers in order to make their case have other agendas in mind.
If Goodman was actually interested in female bloggers she wouldn't ignore the many popular ones which exist or marginalize the one she does point to as one merely about "women's issues."
Consider reading some of the many fine blogs run by women, some of which aren't only about dealing with PMS, and promote them in your column.
On a glass houses note, listed male Editorial / Op-Ed columnists at the Globe get 6 columns per week; women get only 3.
There are six men on the Boston Globe editorial board. There are 2 women.
