A recent study from Solutions Research Group, came up with a staggering fact. We, men, are no longer the absolute owners of gadgets and the real definition of “geeks”. Girl geeks are now ahead of men in activities like streaming network TV, DVR use, and casual gaming, the Women and Digital Lifestyles report (PDF link) said.

70% of women say they played a PC game last month vs. 69% of men.

Though I don’t like men to lose supremacy over gadgets and tech in general I’m certain having more women to talk the Gadgetish (new language) is good. We have a lot in common now, don’t we? I wish they will love football and soccer in the near future …

The concerns of online security are not as big as they should, mainly because everyone thinks their passwords are good enough, they have an anti-virus and that’s it. However the fun thing about that is that in a recent report by security soft maker AVG, men consider themselves much better than women when it comes to online security.

AVG global security strategist Larry Bridwell said that “My gut feeling, because I’m a man, is that it is one of those societal gender things”. It looks like confidence doesn’t translate into safety but hey, this could be another man thing, because security threats are gender-equal.

“Men were exceptionally confident in their own security prowess, and only 4 percent of them said they didn’t know what kind on online protection they had in place. “

The results are from a study that included 1,400 adults in the UK. How do you feel about that? Do you think (you men) are better than women at online security?
