I couldn’t believe how many of you think women just knit and sew! LOL I also thought the unisex name answers were interesting. Maybe it’s because I am a teacher and mom of a young child, but I was thinking names more like Jordan, Taylor, Peyton, etc., that are used for babies NOW. The majority of the answers were for adult unisex names. (although I realize that is my US perception, different things happen in different countries of course)
Someone else come up with the questions next time. That was hard! LOL I don’t mind compiling answers, but whew! Questions are not so easy. I was all over the Net looking for questions (I found one website that was Family Feud for Mormons).
I’ll post winners when I have time to add them up. It’s all inputted, just need that final step!
Be fair! You asked for a common hobby for women. I’ve known women who are into shooting, flying, collecting tattoos, etc. I’ve also known women in knitting clubs.
I have 144 points (unless I have to subtract for my own answers), which has got to be up there. I’m sure someone’s got more, though.
I can’t believe no one else said “scrapbooking” for a woman’s hobby. Hell, I see these damn scrapbooking shops opening up all over the place around here! I see references to it in the comics and on TV quite a bit. (???)
- Name a popular football team. Vikings. Oh, wait. Popular. No idea.

- What is a common hobby for women? Knitting.

- What book might be considered a Great American Novel? Gone with the Wind.

I said Knitting because that is my Wife’s and my Mother’s hobbies.
If you asked me last year I might have said Pottery. (My Wife’s old Hobby)

I didn’t look so I didn’t know it was over. Sorry.
Great job once again, RachelChristine. Your comment about the questions/topics being hard to do was a surprise to me since I just “grabbed them out of the air” in that group I did.
I’m all for somebody else posting the next thread on this basic idea. But if nobody else wants to own the next thread, I will do another batch.
How about if nobody has posted a new thread in this forum with a similar title to the ones we’ve had so far, by Friday morning Feb. 10, then I will.
Please, somebody, beat me to the punch. I want to play!
RachelChristine, are you still game to do the numbers part of the next one?
- Manchester United
- Bicycle
- Kangaroo
- Eating
- Windmill
- The Grapes of Wrath
- Bringing in the Sheaves?
- Morgan
- Curious
Wow, What Exit?(Jim), you & I didn’t even make the top 10!
I only really blew 2 questions. Bring on the next game - I’m ready!
Woohoo!! What do I win???
The satisfaction of a job well done and the admiration of your fellow dopers in this thread.
Jim
I’d like to suggest to RachelChristine that she contact the mods & request that they either (a) lock this thread or (b) amend the OP with a disclaimer that the game is now over. (A) makes more sense.
