| 5 to 1 ratio of women to men in Vancouver
Posted: 11/8/2009 3:18:29 AM | Dance meets draw more women than men because men just don't seem to want to dance after high school. The breakfast meet I attended had 2 women present and over 20 men; the ride meet had one woman and six men; only four men actually went on the ride.
Most large cities have very even gender balance - even 3 or 4 percent has significant social effects. Many suspect that Vancouver has a slight male excess because it's a favoured lifestyle location for gay men.
On PoF, we hear lots of allegations of female numbers but women get many, many more contacts and responses than men. If one looks through photos in the ratings section, one gets fifty to sixty men for each woman... are men that much more prone to posting lots of photos? Are women refusing to be rated? In the Approvals Ratings, which are not self-selected, I see as many as 100 men to one woman - but all the gross nudes and pubes they try to post probably mean they have to repost very often. :)

Posted: 11/8/2009 4:59:53 AM | Are you sure that statistic, 5 to 1, wasn't surveyed at a hair dressing salon?
.....or a womens' washroom with 5 women and one cross dresser in it?
I've never seen anything even close to that ratio in the general public of Van.
I don't doubt some 'watering holes' might like to promote that ratio to attract men to come looking for all those women because men tend to drink more and it would generally boost bar sales. | |

I'll be honest and say I've only had one contact the entire time. I haven't contacted anyone first yet. But in terms of people "looking" (from the "people who viewed you"), usually a few of those each time I login. I'd say women likely can just wait for the right person to contact them, or find someone. Guys on the other hand may only have the option of "find someone."
I know I need to get more photos. I have no idea what women believe is eye catching. | |

Posted: 11/9/2009 9:23:49 AM | ^^are you open to profile suggestions from the forum ladies? If so, you will have to change your restrictions for us old folks :)  Oh, and I like the picture you have posted. I also like to see what someone looks like when they are out enjoying themselves, whether its at the coffee shop, on a hike, or out on the water. | |
