How many female ableton users?

Post by dan aktivix » Sun Apr 29, 2007 3:09 pm

Hey up,

I was wondering how many ableton folk on this forum are male and how many are female? Could you answer in the poll...

We all know this computer music thing is biased toward males, but I'm curious just how biased.

Anyone got any theories on why this might be? My two current ones:

1. Its been shown that game playing produces dopamine, but mainly only in male brains. So gaming is addictive for blokes but not women. I think the same brain reaction might occur from using music software.

2. All those buttons and flashy lights secretly remind the inner seven year old in us of the flight panel of the Millennium Falcon!

Look forward to seeing the numbers...

p.s. Someone's bound to say: hey, what about the trans-gender ableton users! Weeelll, I'm only interested really in finding out the ratio of male to female, so sorry for leaving that out of the poll...

57? What? Where'd that come from? And how many males so's we can work out a ratio?

You know he's been there when you wake up and South Park's on every channel on the TV and you're mysteriously out of ice cream. He's also been known to leave golf tees behind.

After a few years of upgrades girth doesn't make up for stretch. 8O
