TeemuVanBasten 3,327 Posted November 17, 2022 I know Nuff Said absolutely loves my threads so thought I'd treat him. Inspired by recent comments from prominent Tory's that if they don't find young members soon they could be heading towards extinction in 10 years, due to the average age of their members and voters, I thought it be interesting to see whether the Pink'un forum is facing a similar fate. Also, whilst we're at it, I was astonished recently to find out a poster I'd be arguing with was a female, as I'd assumed otherwise without good reason, so it would be interesting to see what the gender balance is too.

In a few days we get to watch England play in Quatar in a stadium build by slaves (many of whom died doing so) against Iran, a country being ran by a brutal religious dictatorship that is killing women for showing their hair!

To be fair to you, this is an interesting one, not that I expect a response given you're supposed to be ignoring me. 😉 Looking at the gender element, I'm quite struck that we've got more of a more fluid gender identity than actual women! Edit: Actually, the poll says sex rather than gender, so the only other option should be hermaphrodite rather than something else.
