cambridgeshire canary 6,704 Posted November 17, 2022 (edited) Well so far the 35 to 44's are in the lead and seeing as the average life expectancy here in England for men is 82 half that you get 41, so "middle age" is therefore 41 it would seem this place is just crawling with middle age fogies!😉 Edited November 17, 2022 by cambridgeshire canary Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Wacky Waving Inflatable Arm Flailing Tube Man 3,811 Posted November 17, 2022 Surprised that with 68 responses, there's only one under the age of 24. I'm 33, but have been using this forum on and off since 2007. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I'm 33, but have been using this forum on and off since 2007. Somebody aged 24 was 9 years old when you started using this forum to be fair. It does really show though that the kids simply don't use forums. Or, it could be symptomatic of the club not getting kids through the doors, perhaps they are all Man City fans, and it is the club sleepwalking into extinction rather than just the forum 😉 Edited November 17, 2022 by TeemuVanBasten Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

sonyc 5,510 Posted November 17, 2022 A 60/40 split then between those under 55 and those over. Apart from those sensible 18-24s it's like a shallow bell curve in graphic form (definitely a curve and not an end). Seems like a decent spread of ages but gender-wise it's very unbalanced. Would more women involved improve the content and culture of the forum? I think so. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Nuff Said 5,119 Posted November 20, 2022 On 17/11/2022 at 12:14, TeemuVanBasten said: 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. TBF as someone else has said, it is a good question, the sex one anyway. But you do seem to start almost as many threads as Cambridge these days. On 17/11/2022 at 15:50, TeemuVanBasten said: I'm on the same side as JK Rowling. I was going to agree with you, but sadly a simple statement just doesn’t match the complexity of the issue. I am all for people who feel they want to change the gender they were assigned at birth, fluctuate back and forth between gender expressions or anything else that is not a traditional “cis” stance. But I am *also* all for battered women who don’t want men in their refuges, women who don’t want men in their changing rooms or toilets or trans women outcompeting them in sport. (Although I suspect J K Rowling would probably say all this too) What I’m not for is internet pile ons, blanket condemnation of people who express an opinion that other people don’t agree with in a discussion or simplistic attempts to shut down debate. It is possible to express support for trans people and have concerns about some of the aims some people have, but to listen to some of the loudest voices, you wouldn’t think so. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
