Chinese men concern themselves mostly with politics and society when blogging online, while women tend to focus on love, life and entertainment, according to new research into Chinese language use in 2011.

The 10 nouns used most frequently by male bloggers included "society," "government," "politics" and "problem," while their female counterparts more commonly typed "men," "love," "friend," "children" and "star," according to a report released on Tuesday by the Ministry of Education.

The most popular names cited in blogs by men included Mao Zedong, Chiang Kai-shek, Karl Marx and historical figures such as Confucius and Cao Cao, all of which are related to politics or the military, the report indicated.

Stars' names, such as Hong Kong actress Cecilia Cheung and microblog queen Yao Chen, were women's favorites.

According to the report, 90.7 percent of blog users post on average 300 entries or less a year. These users contribute to a little more than half of all entries, while the remaining 49 percent are posted by the 9 percent of users who post 300 or more entries annually.

The report also listed the top 10 hot buzzwords, including "Xiangou"(house purchasing quota), "Xiaoche" (school bus) and "Suhuaji"(plasticizing agent), which reflected a real life in China in 2011, according to its authors.

The report was based on a survey of 201,488 entries by 1,728 blog users in 2011.
