The discussion revolves around the gender ratio of users in an online forum, highlighting the challenges of accurately determining this ratio due to the absence of gender fields in profiles. Participants express skepticism about the honesty of responses and suggest that a poll could provide insight, although it would be unscientific. Initial estimates suggest that females might represent less than 5% of the membership, with a current poll showing a male-to-female ratio of 3:6. Some users speculate that men may be less inclined to participate in discussions about gender, potentially skewing the results. Analysis of previous polling behavior indicates that women are more likely to respond to polls than men, suggesting that the current poll might overestimate female representation. The conversation also includes light-hearted banter about gender identity and personal anecdotes, reflecting a mix of humor and seriousness in addressing the topic.

Damn, humanino. This is all my fault, guy. Sorry to have caused you any grief. If anyone else causes you any trouble I'll give them a double titty twister they won't forget.

I'm male, but when I tuck my twig and berries between my legs and talk in my "Silence of The Lambs" voice, I prefer you refer to me as female.
