Witchcraft just for women?

I know this is kind of strange, but i am asking this because i was reading a book about Witchcraft and it kept refering to the one who practice as "she" or something like that. So... if anyone could tell me i would be glad.
Thanks. [happyface]

No, they use "she" just because of the overly patriarchal society we live in. Also women tend to be more intuitive, but that doesn't mean that a man is less capable of witchcraft. [wink]

Hey, now waitaminnit...
I'm sensing a little gender bias underlying this statement.

Upon what, pray tell, are you basing this supposition?
Hmmmm? [geek2]

Not a big fan of gender stereotypes, not a big fan of gender full stop! Genesis P-Orridge FTW!
