A couple of months ago, the Outdoor Blogger Network had a gear review giveaway opportunity for one pair each of men's and women's Bogs® Boots. I threw my name in the hat and crossed my fingers for a win, since I had been shopping for a good, warm pair of boots to use in my winter kayak fishing trips.
I know that this isn’t the topic of conversation at every social gathering but... Being an outdoors kind of woman and being in the military I am envious of how convenient it is for a man to just pee. They don’t have to expose themselves to their knees or further. Then they don’t squat and hope that there isn’t a curious insect wanting to investigate this hovering fleshy mass. The whole process takes perhaps two min's for a guy with minimal coverage required due to the total lack of exposure and maintaining an upright posture...
I have noticed that the world of fishing although somewhat accommodating doesn’t host as many selections for women’s gear as it does for males. That said I am not naive to the fact that it is a male dominated recreation. None the less, I do enjoy fishing. I have learned to adjust. For example, I now know what size shoe I wear in men’s. Men have a wider selection in everything fishing. This is also the case when it comes to personal floatation devices.
Ladies (and fellas that are interested in getting their ladies a gift (which should be all of you!)),
I don't know about you but for the last 2 months I have been shopping like a crazy lady! Normally I am not a big shopper and could even considered myself on the borderline of frugal (yes, don't forget I am the same person who blogged about reusing my husband's old tackle box as a jewelry holder...)
