Well, well, well.. it seems that a shift in male/female viewers of SciFi has changed, according to SciFi UK TV. Female Science Fiction viewers now outnumber male for the first time.

It appears this is because there is now a shift in programmes. Long gone are the days of the 60s where the central theme was a robot or machines. Geek girls are latching onto the well written, witty, character driven stories (mostly based around a leather clad central character - Ben Browder or Keanu Reeves).

I liked the quote from Anne McMeekin, a 29 year-old web accessibility officer from North London, “People have an impression of sci-fi fans being small men who sit in the dark watching Star Trek but it’s not like that now.” No,no,no. There are cool sci-fi fans too!
