okay, this is scarey, not that I didn't know this already a year ago when I joined and attended my first general meeting; however the male to female ratio is 5:1 How did I know this? One of the nifty features with this forum community is statistics. If you are a fan of them, I recommend that you hit your "end" key on the main "home" page and click on "more statistics" its found near where you can see who's been online. Inside that area you will find any and all that you would ever want (or not want) to know about this current online community. And that's where I have found that the estrogen is getting low around here! WHERE ARE ALL THE WOMEN MAC USERS?

I'm not a woman, but so many work in the creative fields and at magazine publishing companies and at associations that publish magazines here in Atlanta. We have to reach out to these people.

Today I noticed that the ratio is 2:1, that's lots better, but where ARE those women? The monthly meeting is still mostly men. Robin, I used to be in that graphics design field and most of the time we were evenly spread out genderwise. I would like to see us publicize to printers, prepress and design firms too!

While the guys are still gaining on us, WOMEN - 4.4:1; I am still psyched that this is the most viewed topic! Come on ladies! Let's show these Mac-males what we're made of....are you with me?
