I still think the number of females on the internet is grossly underestimated by males. Perhaps because male and female interest divides so much

2018-08-01 20:56:38 UTC  

and because historically, it was mostly men

2018-08-01 20:56:47 UTC  

@Beemann what study?

2018-08-01 20:57:01 UTC  

Probably means the pew research study

2018-08-01 20:57:16 UTC  

because men usually seemed to be the ones who were un-phased by being called a nerd

2018-08-01 20:57:39 UTC  

or at least were more thrown out of every other group for it

2018-08-01 20:57:55 UTC  

the only example of women trying to pass as males for a long time, are those that are very good at competing. But those are a rarety. I would say that most women online usually say they are women, or that it becomes obvious after a while.

2018-08-01 20:58:17 UTC  

perhaps after a while

2018-08-01 20:58:25 UTC  

What evidence do you have for that claim beyond personal experience

2018-08-01 20:58:26 UTC  

but how many people do you interact with long enough to find out?

2018-08-01 20:59:30 UTC  

@Saiio who's claim? mine or Belial

2018-08-01 20:59:39 UTC  

depends what kinda interaction we are talking about. I know the gender of everyone on my Discord friendlist

2018-08-01 21:00:19 UTC  

femboy foxes

2018-08-01 21:00:20 UTC  

Let's assume your point though.. would you say this server is 50% female?

2018-08-01 21:00:35 UTC  

Belial

2018-08-01 21:00:37 UTC  

i have no clue, have not interacted with most of this server.

2018-08-01 21:00:46 UTC  

although there is a higher number of females than i thought there would be

2018-08-01 21:00:54 UTC  

all women must die

2018-08-01 21:00:57 UTC  

in this server I only interacted with one

2018-08-01 21:01:03 UTC  

the others are all male

2018-08-01 21:01:17 UTC  

i was about say "any" is higher than a i thought it would be

2018-08-01 21:01:41 UTC  

pretty sure i've interacted with 2 at least.

2018-08-01 21:01:51 UTC  

then again, this includes before the sever changed entirely

2018-08-01 21:02:01 UTC  

then? ratio it out

2018-08-01 21:02:35 UTC  

you can even make mistakes, but there's no way you have 30% female audience here

2018-08-01 21:02:56 UTC  

if we want to play that game. most of the discord servers my gf is in are almost entirely female

2018-08-01 21:02:57 UTC  

FOR A GAY UNIVERSE!

2018-08-01 21:02:59 UTC  

isn't this enough against your argument?

2018-08-01 21:03:11 UTC  

no, because this is not the entire internet

2018-08-01 21:03:16 UTC  

your GF

2018-08-01 21:03:28 UTC  

your GF obviously would be more into female circles

2018-08-01 21:03:32 UTC  

exactly

2018-08-01 21:03:36 UTC  

but she is on the internet

2018-08-01 21:03:37 UTC  

I don't think anyone denies that there are plenty of women on facebook for example which is part of 'the internet'

2018-08-01 21:03:42 UTC  

which is part of my point

2018-08-01 21:03:50 UTC  

males tend to female circles too though

2018-08-01 21:03:59 UTC  

😏

2018-08-01 21:04:31 UTC  

i think males underestimate the number of females inhabiting the internet, often along side them. I.E. here on discord.

2018-08-01 21:04:41 UTC  

or in videogames

2018-08-01 21:05:37 UTC  

you might encounter MMO players who have encounter few females, then take them to a part of the game they don't care about, and suddenly they are surrounded with more females than they though even played the game.

2018-08-01 21:06:52 UTC  

"you know, tumblr seems to be overwhelmingly female. this post seems to claim 4chan is pretty equal in its gender distribution, social media seems to primarily attract more females than males. I'm beginning to think that the internet, at least by todays standards, is fulled with may more female influence than people care to admit"

was my original statement
