Title: Male to Female Ratio
Post by: JeffroM on January 23, 2012, 05:52:53 PM
I was just checking out the website general statistics and found our membership ratio is 14 males for every 1 female.   ???  I need to find a new hobby....

I've never quite understood why the fish hobby composition is like this. If you go to dog shows, as best I remember it, there's more women than men. If you went to a cat show I suspect you'd find the same. I think avian interests are closer to a 50/50 split. I've got no clue how the reptile/amphibian scene is - maybe the same as fish?

Unless runawaypencil is also named Jeff than why did I get the blame for this comment?

I'm starting to feel like a whipping boy.  Taking the blame for every smart alec / dumb comment.  There are others on the forum that say dumb things too!

Okay we are trending in the WRONG direction.  In the last 7 weeks we've fallen from 14:1 ratio to 18:1.  We need more BITCHes (Babes in the Cichlid Hobby).

You might want to add a link to validate that statement, as to not offend all of the woman who might read this thread and not know you're referencing an actual group. Otherwise the ratio you're keep track of will surely get worse.  ;)
