Yeah but that includes "fake" girl profiles, in reality there may be less of us. Fake profiles like yours? I suspect the overwhelming majority who state they're female in their profile actually arent. Doesn't matter anyway but it always seems to me the ones that go on about it are doing so for an agenda.

There was one poster that I respected and assumed was male. One day, they posted links to feminist blog posts that they had obviously book-marked (They were not recent). I am not saying men can't read feminist blogs (I do myself on occasion); but from that point on, I "read" them as female.
Why didn't you ask him/her? It's not creepy to ask somebody's gender, especially when most of you guys aren't that pervy after all. Seriously most of you guys have been super nice and polite to me I thought of that. I decided it really was not important; since they are not really a dating prospect. I try to avoid mentioning my own gender. BTW, this was one of the links mentioned: Five Reasons You Need to Break Your Emoticon Addiction. (I guess I am going to be read as female now by shy people like me )

Lol no, I'm a real girl but I agree there may be plenty of fake ones, especially after reading a bunch of horror stories about fake girls scamming guys on here and so on. I have no agenda though, I'm really nice, not here to scam anyone. x

Good luck!

As you mention, women get dozens of PMs..which guys don't. I don't think it is fair to hound the few women that do make an appearance. Being mostly anti-social, I rarely PM people: male or female. If I wanted to get serious about looking, I would try local activities that interest me first. As I understand it, long-distance relationships rarely work out.

Not hound but there's no harm in networking and saying hi to people, ask questions, etc. Anyway, I'm sure you're not the only anti-social person here Ps. Long distance? How? I'm sure there are girls here from all over the world including your city, wherever that is.

It is attention you don't always want.

It is attention you don't always want. Loved the video, but what is that girl complaining about??? Wtf?? I wish guys here in the UK were more like that (maybe not walking next to me for five minutes like that guy did, that would freak me out). But seriously, getting ignored by EVERY guy is horrible too, it kills my self-esteem every time. The prettier you are the more they ignore you over here, it's like an unwritten rule in Britain. No wonder some girls in America have huge self-esteem even if they're not pretty. Come on British guys you can do better. And to all American guys out there, please don't change! Compliments are good, it's a shame some bitter girls cant appreciate that.
