Ummm, perhaps because it takes her away from the aching drudgery, souless and vacuous existence of her own life with you, devoid of any meaning other than a warmed up meal of beans on toast and a warm beer on a friday evening. When all her being silently screams silently inside; 'take me Roger! do it now! make lurve to me'. te. Anyone see the point to it? Why is it so popular? And you just sit on the internet bemoaning hers and your fate.
Damn it man, go back in that room, lay your Salami on the table and tell her to get down dirty with it.

another Father Ted fan then! 
My housemate watches all the soaps - Hollyoaks, Eastenders etc etc. Now and then I will watch them but the storylines are so easy you can pretty much fall in and out of watching them and still work out whats going on.
Anyway housemate once described it as a bit like "people watching" which is pretty much favourite past-time of most woman when we're out and about and hence probably why so many woman watch soaps.
As for me - I'd rather watch a good episode of Top Gear on Dave! Even better if its the one I'm in the background of!
