RoseNell, yes I am a male, an old one at that, but that is never really all that important around here. What is important is that if you feel a subject should be brought up then bring it.
You will find though that all though both female and males make up the community it's is only a small percentage of the total community that shows up here in the forums. It would seem that of those that do, the majority, not all, are male.
Post threads, make noise, be heard. This is not an elitist boys club, it's a place where folks of common interests meet. 
Thump a Troll on the 1st of Feb, it will make you feel better.
