thought this thread was intended to be silly not hostile
Hello, let me introduce you to ilx.
― Johnny Fever, Sunday, 12 July 2015 06:39 (eight years ago) link
I don't think it has to be silly or hostile. I'm interested in seeing the results of this poll.

ilx2015 is as cuddlestein as it's ever been, so calling it "hostile" is pretty bewildering

I think spinning this poll off the Runaways thread was pretty stupid.
― holger sharkey (Tom D.), Sunday, 12 July 2015 07:41 (eight years ago) link
See I assumed the point of this thread was to take an extremely idiotic conversation about ilx demographics and the dreadful assumptions ppl were making away from the serious conversation about rape that was being derailed

Feel like the % of confirmed* SWM posting itt already beginning to vindicate the DREADFUL ASSUMPTIONS ppl were making in that other thread
*acknowledging that I do not know the identities of everyone, and not trying to disappear the confirmed non-SWM itt (aside from me), and feeling confident the asterisk disclaimer strategy will work yeah :-)

this might be a poll where the votes count less than who makes the most noise in the runup

i'm going to state the obvious: yes, it would be entertaining to know if ILX really does conform to this stereotype. (2/3 here, btw)
― Nhex, Sunday, 12 July 2015 17:37 (eight years ago) link
yes, it would be entertaining to know if ILX really does conform to this stereotype
yes, we may safely assume that internet polls are always entirely accurate

ilx obvs more white male than USA population in general (tho its a world wide board) not sure re the straight part

what I'd really like to know are the demographics of etsy and pinterest

Awesome iconic longtime poster just boils over in peak frustration and quits and the procession of "SWM here, look at me, arent we the worst?" posts doesn't so much as even hiccup...
― the man who posts like Sam Smith sings (Drugs A. Money), Saturday, 18 July 2015 02:48 (eight years ago) link
Ilx would def benefit from more diversity.

Also drugs a money otm i hate this thread.
― Treeship, Saturday, 18 July 2015 02:52 (eight years ago) link
i thought this thread was to identify all the swms so ppl could know whose posts they could ignore/call out without feeling bad about it. seems to serve the public good.
― call all destroyer, Saturday, 18 July 2015 03:04 (eight years ago) link
runaways thread was one of those i type+delete like 10 bathetic-seeming posts a day in before ultimately posting nothing, but i did stop by this one for one of the glib jokes i am more confident with, which i came pretty quickly to regret: a swm story

IRL, when I'm OOC:
*tries to rise above stereotypes and stay aware of otherwise invisible privileges**gives those privileges to others when in a position to do so*
also, what is the definition of straight here? Straight-passing, I'm assuming?

i think it's funny that in the 60s straight meant dork
― Treeship, Sunday, 19 July 2015 02:14 (eight years ago) link
I think it was more like normal/square. Not necessarily "dork" but not into drugs and counterculture and such.
― five six and (man alive), Sunday, 19 July 2015 02:24 (eight years ago) link
Eh, sounds about right.

Capt of HS football team who went on to work in a bank would be "straight" though not necessarily a dork.
