sheesh you guys are thicker than sh*t. i said i din't want a girly-girly type board. i want a fair mix of guys and girls.

What you are describing does not exist on the internet. Sorry.
that is what i have been finding out. everywhere i go it's a meat market.
not that that is a bad thing......but i would rather there be more on my team.

Why don't you check out forums that aren't computer hardware discussion forums? Check out movie, music, etc. forums. This forum is mainly highschool and college guys.

I think most forums will be mainly guys, but I've noticed that ones that deal with movies have more than the average amount of girls (but still not a whole lot). Plus, they're a lot more mature (not as many highschoolers and college folks), populated with a wide range of ages and careers. I think the most diverse and smartest communities on the Internet are movie-related ones :)

forums.planethzl.com.

it's true it's mostly guys, but a good amount of the active posters are females ( > 30% ). you may find it interesting.

edit:

at least it's a step up from the 100000 : 5 ratio here.

That's like going into a guitar shop looking for equal number of drum sets to guitar sets. It's just not gonna happen. :p

When Primenova was popular, that forum had almost 1:1 ratio. The forum is a ghost town now ..

You can find someone to provide you with all the attention you need instead of having to post here. Thus saving thousands of people from reading your bullshit.

try out the IMDB forums? I've seen different movie sub forums there and there seems to be a lot of female posters of various ages on there.

Check out non-American forums, where guys don't freak out at the possibility of someone ever having been in the proximity of a girl.

Got any suggestions? I'd be interested to see some sort of board that isn't 95% American...any in English?

DVDTalk is a good board and they also have an off-topic forum, but they have a pretty well established community so it's a little strange sometimes.

There's no girls on the internet. Once they get over the rush of having guys fawn over them, they get bored and get back into their old routines of waiting for sales at Hecht's and Macy's.
