Guys on Pinterest

I get an email notification everytime someone new follows me on Pinterest, and I'm always shocked when guys start following my boards.  We jokingly refer to Pinterest as porn for chicks, and I really think it's odd when guys join.  Are they doing it to spy, or is there really a male interest in Pinterest too?

    Haha I have no idea, but the first time I got a notification that a guy friend of mine was following me, I was like with?!?  DH actually thinks the concept is cool.

    See, my husband doesn't really cook, and to my knowledge none of the guys that started following me are into cooking either.  In fact, I should check to see if they even have boards or are just being creepy stalkers.

    My DH has no idea about pinterest beyond liking  to ask me "What's Pinteresting?" and giggling to himself like he said something really funny.  Dork! Having said this, I do know other guys on there that appear to be pretty normal.  ;)

    I have a few guy followers and a few that I follow.  One of them is a decorator so I love his pins.
