9. I've always wondered why Women don't get their own cave

My room looks pretty much like a cave: it's filled with books and my "gear" and all the little things that define my life. Due to disability/illness, I've had to spend a great deal of time in there, engaged in solitary activities. I don't invite anyone in there - definitely not guys! And it's pretty dark because glare hurts my eyes.

So wouldn't that be a "girl cave"? Am I the only one with a "girl cave"?
