As we enter the 14th year of Soxtalk.com, I got wondering. What are the demographics of the people who post here?

 

I thought an informal poll would give the site a good idea as to who our members are.

 

Please be honest with your selections.

 

Thanks!

Are you surprised?

 

That's actually one thing that has bothered me for a while. I expect this to be a male-heavy site, but I think we've gone so far that there are hardly any women posting at all. Getting rid of the Hot Chicks thread might help that, but not sure what else would really help.

you're comment paired with your sig made me laugh louder than I should have.

The other demographic that interests me is occupation. I think we have a pretty diverse selection here in that regard.

How funny is your use of "you're"?

Jimmy Butler is amused.

I think we (as a group) have probably not been too appealing to women. But it's hard to unless they're super into sports and the White Sox.

 

I'm a single dad!

Doh, I might have voted single with kid by mistake (supposed to be married with kid)

Great, now the poll is ruined. Thanks Jenks.

For all your criticism of Cutler being inaccurate, you can't even click a mouse in the right circle!

Where is Lillian and Melissa? They need to vote so its not ALL dudes.

Ha, fair enough.

I'm a little surprised no one has voted that is under the age of 23. It's crazy because that's the age range a ton of us were when this site started... But I know it's early in the day - maybe they are all still asleep.

 

Edit: Looks like it took 26 votes to get someone in that age range.

Hard to believe I was 15 years old when I started posting here at Soxtalk. 10 years later and I can admit to saying time stops for nobody.

And I'm 23

 

I'm pretty sure we have a few others, though.

 

 

How about divorced with kids? I marked single but I'm divorced with kids (and most of them are older than most of you).

I feel old with this poll!

You feel old?! I'm f***ing ancient.

Ah, I see one other person has joined me in the 42-47 bracket. The old fogies.

 

For the record, I JUST turned 42 a few days ago.

I am holding top the of the 41 bracket.

I marked "Married, with kids" but apparently that is subject to change (not the kids part).

It's kind of crazy how many of us came to the site at almost the exact same time and all around the same age.
