ha right ; that would seem also to be indicated. maybe to confirm, we could do a survey, asking your gender and whether or not you enjoy filling out surveys.

Curiously, I can't find any polls here that ask either of these: What is your gender? What ebook reader do you own? Anyone up for posting these?

Please don't be impolite. Whether or not you "approve" of the fact, the term "eReader" is a trademark, owned by Fictionwise, referring to an eBook format. Using the term erroneously to refer to an eBook reader helps nobody and merely engenders confusion.

51 votes, so far, and only the Kindle has more women (or the other way around). Yet, all e-readers have equal share of man and women, except the Sony, overwhelmingly a "male" device. Also, it seems women hate Bebook/Hanlin.
Gender aside, Sony is MR's favourite e-reader, while there's a fair equilibrium among the other devices. Talking only about gender, we have considerably more male readers. Also, it should be noted that these results might be circumstancial and they have a very low correlation value |

I thought there are a lot more kindle users around. Maybe they have not noticed the poll?

You know, I was about to write the very same statement. I know the Sony's been out a year and half and there a lot of old-time Sony owners here but the Kindle's been out 7 months. Surely there can't be a 2 or 3 to 1 ratio of Sony to Kindle owners here, can there?

An interesting question to the moderators -- what's the ratio of male to females who have registered at MobileRead? Of the members who have posted at least XXX messages, what's the ratio? Of the members who have posted at least 20 messages in the past month, what's the ratio?

When Sony was released, here was (and still is) about the only place the users can discuss it. |

igorsk: That's a good point, and something that I'd wondered about; it does seem like these forums seem to be the central hub of all Reader discussion on the internet...I like 'em. |

If lying's involved, the culprit is definitely every woman ever.
