Ego maleness

Now you really should see Robert Sharpe's blog. In an email to me in which he encouraged me to pop some postings he mentioned that self publishing might be giving a little nourishment to the old ego.

He is probably right. But it made me think that an 'ego' always seems to be a male sort of thing - so do women have a female equivalent for 'ego'? Do women have egos? Dangerous territory - answers in an email.

I wouldn't dare suggest that all self publishing is necessarily the result of over-inflated egos (If I did, all those egotistical bloggers would be flaming me pretty quickly I'll wager).

But starting up a new blog does require a certain self-confidence in one's own opinions, and on the opinionated blogosphere this is particularly important. I wonder what the male-female demographics are in blogging?
