Most of the women I know spend one or two hours in the morning with a straightening iron and a blow dryer. Wikipedia has http:// en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Blowdryer and http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/ Hair_iron . These two articles are considerably out of date and do not begin to encompass the complexities of these appliances (and there is not even separate articles for straightening irons and curling irons!). Compare to http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Computer and http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Television , the two appliances I have known men to use most.
Keitel, your e-mail is itself a good example of bias. The women you know who spend two hours every morning with a straightening iron and a blowdryer need to find a good hairdresser. The cut is everything. :-)
Seriously, it's kind of disturbing to see that women should be editing [[Blowdryer]] while the men get to grips with [[Arab-Israeli conflict]].
