Evening all, good wishes to you.
Starting by stating the obvious, this is Gransnet. By its very name, the majority of members who might have done an online search looking for forums for those of a like mind, are likely to be women. Some will be men, of course, and I'm sure they are very welcome. Often (not always!) their input can be of great value and enable a different viewpoint on the topic.
Although I have not asked GNHQ for a breakdown of figures (surely they have enough on there plate at present) chances are they might:
A) Not have them (names don't necessarily indicate gender) or:
B) Cannot release the figures due to data protection.
Now, with these things in mind, shall we look at the logic?
With more female members than male, who is more likely to be posting on forums? And (in certain circumstances, and on certain threads) WHO are they likely to be posting about?
In the main, these posts are posted with humour and affection.
Surely they can be accepted and taken as such, without being seen as a "dig" or attack, or put down?
I hope this post is taken in the spirit that it is meant.
