He got popular in the States, thus, you all can keep him. We'll even toss in Rob Ford to sweeten the pot, eh?

Female: currently single, (but I've never had a bf).
It's interesting that the numbers are diverging from those in the SAS thread. They're substantially less extreme. :thinking:

Both samples are very small. It's no surprise they deviate this much from one another.
The results don't surprise me either. It would be interesting to compare these results with a sample of people without SA. I expect that both groups of women (with and without SA) are more likely to be in a relationship than men, though the difference would be more noticeable in the SA group.
It could also be interesting to see how much time both genders spent on relationships, or maybe the number of relationships they had. I expect the currently single males to have had less relationships than currently single females.
As for why, there could be some reasons such as:
-considering our society, men are usually expected to initiate interaction with the opposite sex;
-women might have an easier time connecting to other people (specially potential partners) due to evolutionary reasons;
-considering the evolution of our species, a "weak" female is more "acceptable" than a "weak" male; females are genetically programmed to look for strong and brave men, capable of protecting and providing for their family, leaving those with SA out; from the perspective of a male, a "weak" woman may be more desirable or just as desirable as any other, as long as she seems capable of bearing children.
The last two reasons may be completely off because I never studied anything related to it. Feel free to prove me wrong.
Well it's hardly enough to publish on, but 53:22 single male:female on SAS versus 27:19 here is enough to be interesting.

From my experience you could add "predatory males who use mental health sites for easy prey".
I was about to add...well something along those lines.
A recent thread made clear that 'meeting chicks' is a a major reason why a lot of males join sites like these--though I don't believe that means they are necessarily predatory. They could just be lonely, and using any and all means they can think of to meet chicks. I don't believe 'meeting dudes' is a typical female reason for joining these sites. It would skew the numbers in any event.
I know we get predators here sometimes. I've met some of them. I don't think they are a major percentage. Gah. I hope they're not.
NOOO! And you can keep Celine Dion too!
After 10 years running this place, I'd put it at about 5-10%

10% of men that sign up here are predators? That's actually kind of a lot.... :thumbdown:
Hey, I like Sarah McLachlan! Except when she appears on those horrible, horrible heart-wrenching abused animal commercials. Those make me want to die.Hehehe. What about Sarah McLachlan? Jim Carey? ...Avril Lavigne?
Yeah. Quite a bit more than I was figuring. :/

I like her too, although some of her music is kind of sappy. I'm a fan of a lot of it, though. And she looks great for her age. I had no idea she was 46.
