Just curious...
How many females actually post here? Not that I would mind being the only female.

Active female posters? On a sci-fi board? Surely you jest . . . especially with folks like RayCav about.Kelly Antilles wrote:How many females actually post here? Not that I would mind being the only female.
But anyways. Including you, there are two active female posters, I think. Maybe even one if the newest one stops posting. And two if Lusankya ever comes back.Tales of the Known Worlds:

It's not as rare as you might think. Back in the day there were a fair number of women both on the Trek echos on Fidonet and on the B5 newsgroups.GrandMasterTerwynn wrote:Active female posters? On a sci-fi board?
I dunno what's different about webboards for them to be an almost entirely male domain. Having the testosterone poisoned nuts (not just the one you mentioned) around probably doesn't help the gender balance much, however...
It's not my place in life to make people happy. Don't talk to me unless you're prepared to watch me slaughter cows you hold sacred. Don't talk to me unless you're prepared to have your basic assumptions challenged. If you want bunnies in light, talk to someone else.

Re: Just curious...
I have heard that most women do not care to hang around so much testosterone, but for someone who has pretty much only been around such all her life, I haven't a problem with it.Enlightenment wrote:It's not as rare as you might think.

I know how to handle over-enthusiastic males.

My wife occasionally reads the board as a guest. Does that count?
Hey, there's a thought. Mike, does your wife ever read your board? And if so, what does she think of the near hero-worship you get in these-here parts?

There's probably more females posting on the board than you think. You're just assuming that they're all guys.
