Hi again, everyone. I recently posted a few pics of myself in the “Pictures of Men” section of the forums, and it’s been an interesting experience. I was a little surprised by the low number of page views on many threads in that section: many had a few tens of page views, and I suspect some of the views were from gay/bi men or straight men curious to see how they compare. Anyway, I peeked in the “Pictures of Women” section and found that the thread views there averaged in the thousands! Even by a conservative estimate, the ratio of “men looking at women” to “women looking at men” on Pixie’s is greater than 100:1. It’s really surprising to me because the male:female ratio on Pixie’s appears to be about 50:50. OK, we can assume that the 50:50 ratio is for posters only, and a lot of men register at Pixie’s just to look at pics and never post. Still, these observations suggest that most women on Pixie’s hardly ever go into the “Pictures of Men” section. Why is that? I’ve heard explanations ranging from “male bodies are ugly, hairy, and lumpy” to “women don’t respond to visual stimuli as strongly as men,” but I’d love to hear the opinions of the women here.
