There's usually a thread started every year or so, so might as well get the roll call going. How many Lady Chewers frequent the boards?

I've been feeling the love from Sister Gracie Lou, MissZooey, Eileen, Bele, Werewolf Girl, and yt lately. Where my other girls at?

*Edited to add my favorite political junkie yt!

If all the women post in here, will we get our periods at the same time?*


*In homage to another thread that is currently making me happier than parakeets, kittens, and The Arcade Fire, I just wanted to say right here that I lived in an all-girls' dorm** for a year in college. It never happened.

Good, I've been looking for a comprehensive list of chewers I'm not allowed to defend when Devin mocks them.

These threads always turn out to be a bunch of guys making lame semi-pickup jokes while the few women write in and announce their presence.

That said, Sister Gracie Lou is the greatest thing since sliced bread.

So there's probably only 10 or so women that post here (saw 7 listed so far, I'm guessing there's a couple others)? For some reason I thought there would be more...

I'm actually curious to know what the breakdown is on male:female Chewers. Is it as highly skewed as it seems, or are there more females out there, lurking?

I guess I'm kind of in the lurking category, as I read nearly every day, but don't post often.

It's good to hear even though it doesn't need to be said often. We wouldn't be here if we didn't love this place.

Wait, so you and your roommates didn't pillow wrestle in lingerie every night? Because that's what happened in my dorm (and it was coed).

True that, but these threads aren't for you. They are for the few ladies that frequent the boards to realize they are not alone. And yes, on a testosterone filled message board where terms like bitch and slut are thrown around like nothing, sometimes we need to know that.

I agree on both counts.

She had kind words for me the other day,
and yeah - the lonely guy thing stands out when the girls make their presence known.

True, and I didn't mean to come off like that. Wasn't ripping on the thread itself, just on the losers that post in these. No disrespect intended.

With that said, I'm going to tuck my dick between my legs and slip out the door.

Thanks, Gents.

This board has seen some amazing women come and go. If any of you gals are lurking (Shelby? Prala? Alice?), do drop in and say Hello.

Does Avalon still post?

All the girls in my single-sex dorm were really straightlaced. And, once I moved into the coed dorm, I could never get the pothead who lived down the hall to put on the merry widow. He was such a killjoy.

There are a very, very small number of female chewers. I couldn't even hazard a guess at the ratio. Unless a forum is designed for women, things tend to skew male on the internet. Being one of those librarian types, I spend a bit of time thinking and reading about how people communicate with one another online. I've read a couple of interesting articles on the subject recently. I'll see if I can find them online. The first thing that comes to mind (and the first thing I was able to find) is the Kathy Sierra dustup of a few months back. In a nutshell - female blogger shares somewhat controversial opinion, gets heavily sexualized death threats. Awesome. It even made The New York Times.

Actually, in Britain, the biggest demographic using the internet are currently young and female.
Not so sure about the rest of the world.

The only numbers I could find on England say that more British men than women are internet users. Unfortunately, the numbers are three years old. They might as well be a hundred.

I was able to find some other, slightly more recent stats for other countries, though. Generally speaking, in other countries, it would appear that men still slightly edge out women, but I really couldn't find anything both comprehensive and very recent. Odd.

I think it's less a matter of sheer numbers, though, esp. since the difference in the number of male and female internet users seems to be so small in most cases. What I find more compelling is the difference in the ways in which men and women are present online. Women in western (and many, many other societies) have historically had a complex relationship with public space and what is and isn't permissable for them there. Since the internet is just another one of those "spaces," it's interesting to watch how some of the same things one sees play out in physical existance manifest themselves online.

Didn't look Chewess makes no sense. Didn't look Chewish or didn't look like a Chewess, either way, would make sense.

I'm never on the boards at this time of night, but just came in from bar hopping and decided to see who's around. Lo and behold, there you are!

Congrats on getting married! Glad things are going well for you.

Ha! Apparently you posted as I was editing my previous one. Now it looks like I'm psychic*.

How'd you meet this guy? What's he like? How come the CHUDettes didn't get to approve of him first?
