Before anyone jumps down your throat, Athens, we should note:

Well, there's LBK, iWrite, JustAnOlBroad, and the dubious "Patty"... so essentially the ratio of men to women is 1000:1, not very good if you ask me!

The results so far are very interesting. It would be nice if more females would participate on the forums.

I like it that way. You get to see who voted which way.

And KeriVit. Actually, if you look here (MacNN Forums Member Photo Gallery) there are a few others, but they don't participate consistantly.

"Results are public?" I can't even see *my own* results.
Another curiosity: After responding, stats say "Voters: 52" and Men: 48; Women: 4.
This sounds even less than "unscientific".

I voted at 2pm 4/18/2005 (MDT), although heading says:

Go here to see the full results: http://forums.macnn.com/poll.php?do=...ts&pollid=2320
You'll see your name under each category you voted for. Also, on this page, the categories you voted are in italics.

Why is that weird? It's a whole month later. Am I missing something at first glance?

Damn, I saw that one member voted for both political extremes. Can I go back and do that, too? Maybe add another choice for those who fall in the middle?

So typical of Americans - you're either American or you're not. No wonder the rest of the world thinks you're a bunch a jerks.
And I answered 'married' - I think 15 years of living with my partner in a committed/loving relationship qualifies me to tick 'married' - afterall, it has lasted longer than my 3 brother's church blessed marriages.

Well since almost 80% of the people here are Americans, I don't think it's so ridiculous. Should he have listed every other country in the world, so that it would be 80% America, 1% Canada, 1% UK, 1% Australia, ... Get over yourself, jerk.

I almost didn't bother with the poll when I saw how juvenile it was - possibly other non-Americans thought the same but didn't bother with the poll
And I wasn't asking for every country in the world to be listed wally wataru - just regions. GAFY

Rather than being silly, you could have suggested continents.

First im not American asshole, second there is a limit of options, otherwise I would have put in Pacific, Asia, Europe, Africa. Considering there are more American Mac Users, and this site is American I figured I would see how many of the users are North American and how many arnt. So go complain to the Admin about why there is only 12 options before yaping I mean crying about Americans being jerks when it wasent even a American who made the post/poll.

No, I can see from your bio that you are not an American asshole but your poll did group all of the North American countries together and so my initial reply is valid.

Well you'd fit in well here I guess.
And the rest of the world thinks no such thing. I told you a MILLION times to stop exaggerating.

So, you think that the lack of woman members on this board is only due to women being either too dumb to use a forum or because they use PC's? Jesus, after reading stupid bullsh�t like that, it's a wonder that there are any women members here (Cody Dawg/iWrite excepted as I'm not too sure if she even classigies as human).
Did you ever think that the level of conversation here could be so banal and dumb that most people would simply not be interested? Have you never wondered why so many members have left?
