[quote=Anonymous]I've found that this type of stereotypical segregation and topic of discussion happens more often if the "party" or social event is bringing together a mix of people who typically don't associate with each other.  Like a kids' birthday party where both sides of the family (who normally don't get together) and the kid's friends' parents are all coming together in a social setting where no one really knows each other all that well.  Im straight and I hate these types of events because I hate small talk.  The topics you're describing are small talk things that people can superficially feel comfortable talking about.  When Im at a gathering of good friends and family, the conversations are not divided along gender lines and we all talk more about topics with more depth because we all feel comfortable with each other, I would imagine.  I have gay family members and friends and I assure you this is not a gay/straight thing.  That being said, my husband hates sports and will tend to hang out with the women and talk about kids' stuff because he takes care of a lot of the kids' stuff, and that's what he knows.  No one thinks its odd or anything, that's just the way it is.[/quote]
