One thing I noticed was that several women (that usually hid the fact they were women) decided to leave ATS when things started to be more extreme, so that created an even more male forum "population".
I also noticed that on another forum in which I was an adminitrator.
Well not all of "us" left.
Just my 2 cents but when things get ridiculous (extreme) if you're already putting up with it at work or home it just takes the fun out of enjoying the forum. Personally since DI & ATS are assumed to be idea driven, deny ignorance I don't much think about the identity of anyone. The avatars I do pay attention to.
