LFGSS Demographics

donedonedonedonedone

21 females have filled in so far. Worth posting in the Ladies subforum?

Wouldn't that create bias... so far it's just a natural cross-section of the community who have filled it in without focusing specifically on any group that is likely to bias the demographics.

Clive, people that earn more than £90K a year shouldn't "work" when they're over 65.
They should contribute to society in a different way, charitable work and similar sorts, start giving back rather than taking from.

Why? Considering they've probably been paying £35K+ in taxes, NI contributions etc. I'd say they've given rather more back than most people.

Ha

New cleats?

How do I see those nice charts again? Form is greyed out for me

But surely if it's only posted here, which I assume it is, then it's already creating a bias. Of bias post coming up geeky males who are interested in tech/IT to read this particular sub forum..

EDIT - Have just woken up and realised this was in General :)

But even so, I have a few LFGSS lady buddies who rarely venture into General.

Uh-huh. Sausage-fest.

BTW, every now and then I will re-order the spreadsheet by a random column. This is solely to provide some anonymity so that when people post here and say "done", it's not possible to correlate that to the spreadsheet by looking at the last rows.

So the order of the spreadsheet absolutely does not represent the order in which things were posted.

Done.

Actually done yesterday, just subverting people's attempts to guess who's who.

I lied about certain facts to ensure no-one could correlate my details to me.

I said I was a childless woman aged under 18 and earning 40k a year. Hopefully that will give me anonymity.

The rest was true

Marital status?

Asking for, uh, a friend.

I've been married to MrsO for 24 years but thanks for asking.

Silver wedding anniversary next year then Clive. You'd better get saving.

Not worth saving yet. She might ditch me before 28 June 2011.

But if you've been married for 24 years then that can only mean you told lies about your age! I bet you're not even a real lesbian either. Honestly.

I didn't need to lie. Average in every way.

Exactly. That person would be paying for two non working families to live. What those non working families are giving back to society is another question of course.

Jeremy Kyle, natch.

i think that was the wrong time to use natch, perhaps obviously would have been more suitable.

And they are non working through choice, of course. And the only value anyone has is monetary, of course.

Come on. You're better than this. Gold and fame has value that isn't monetary.

And don't forget 'respect'.
