On the home page why are the 'featured members' only ever the women of this site and never the men?
They are all lovely but aren't we all equal?
I think it's more females since more females actually have a profile picture and many men have a picture of a woman instead of a man.
Ok here is the question.... does it really matter at the end of the day?
I know for me, I love looking at that one man's tree (can never remember his name, the one, where he takes the picture looking up at it? So ethereal, quiet and calming that picture) and usually click to look at his profile often.
I think it has to do with the fact that many women don't really care if there are naked photos or not in a person's profile or if the avatar has some form of nudity. For me at least, I go with what I find interesting. If a person makes a great post, I look at their profile. If a person has a curious avatar, I go looking.
Living life and enjoying life are two different things... just need to figure out how to do both at the same time to live it right!
Woman... GO FLY A KITE!!!!! Take a slideshow walk with me on a walk through the parks of Inner Mongolia, China. Then enjoy the tale of a very traditional day in the life of a white Woman in China. I think that the amount of males visiting the site compared to females is way bigger (twice the amount?), thats why female profiles get visited more (or male with female pictures as avatar) and thus show up in the featured box. (not sure how that is calculated but I think profile hits has a lot to do with it)
Just compare the top 10 of most viewed female profiles compared to the top 10 of most viewed male profiles and you see a big difference in profile views (with the exception of one male profile who always has a sexy female avatar)
It would be an idea to split the featured box in half, one half to show only female and the other to show only male profiles. But then again, the male profiles with female avatars might show most of the time.
