One member of the audience volunteered that to universalize “pink topics” and make them matter in the media as much as they do in real life, the media should make an effort to “cross-list” them, or bring more men into the discussion. Everyone seemed to think that was a good idea, while noting that very few men had attended the night’s panel.

I agree with this statement whole heartedly: "“It’s almost like the more interesting a story is, the less important it’s considered,” I too am trying to figure this out. I recently read a book that is very enlightening. It is called, "Get Real! Fighting The Mythic Woman Finding Your Authentic Self" by author Ananya S. Rajan. This a non-fiction self help book written for all women who would like to learn how to know themselves more and become more comfortable and confident in who they are. It talks about women’s issues without the anger behind it. It’s an empowering book! http://www.fightingthemythicwoman.com/
