Most online forums are white, male and sometimes comfortable. The question is why. I can understand why many women avoid forums but often see evidence posters of all persuasions choose to join forums they know are largely occupied by people they’d disagree with. In many instances there’s the simple explanation they’re repressed and trodden on at home finding places such as this the one area they feel they can assert themselves. Such is probably better than having places like this become echo chambers spurting only their particular view of the universe.
