: PrawfsDo Women Blog?
By Dan Markel, Ethan Leib, Rick Garnett, Matt Bodie, Paul Horwitz , Steve Vladeck, and Orly Lobel
Do female law professors blog? I mean, I know a few of them do. Orly Lobel is one of the regular PrawfsBlawg bloggers, and several other women, including Katy Kuh, Liz Glazer, Miriam Cherry, Laura Appleman, and Elaine Chiu, have guest blogged here. But do women really blog anywhere close to their numbers in the academy? Skimming the list here, women are decidedly in the minority. (By my count, Orly is one of nine regular bloggers, and of the ten guest bloggers, only one is female.) And yet looking at the AALS faculty composition data, faculty under 50 (most bloggers are under 50, right?) are roughly equally split in terms of male female. So I'm curious. Do female law professors blog? If so, where? I know about the Feminist Law Professors blog , but where else? And if female law professors really are underrepresented in the blogosphere, why? Enquiring minds want to know.
