Ladies, are you Atheists?
September 29, 2009 at 10:35 am
(This post was last modified: September 29, 2009 at 10:38 am by Godless.)
Being a newcomer here I've been searching the members list to see how many
Atheists here are female. Very difficult to see as many don't say what sex they are,
whatever that may mean
I think that the fairer sex is more inclined to be believers than we male, rough ol' sods
Certainly, when my wife goes to C of E church and I furtively peep in (!!), most there are
women.
But can any one here to help disprove my view on that?
That leads me on to wonder how many married Atheists have atheistic other halves?

To answer your question on this some ladies are and some aren't believers.
I believe that most of the ladies on this forum are atheist.
It also depends on where you live. I live in Portland, Oregon and theres a lot of ladies and men as well that are christian.

A 48 year relationship is something my 21 year old brain cannot yet fathom.
I know a load of girls who are atheists; most don't usually admit it, but I'd say there is probably a similar number of girls to boys in the atheist camp.

In my atheist group here in Boston there are a lot of ladies, myself among them. I would say there are probably more guys, but not by much.

I know lots of ladies who are atheists and agnostic! Actually in high school and such I knew more girls that were atheist/agnostic then guys.

Sounds suprising to me. I would thought that there would be quite few women who were atheist, concidering that atheism and freethinking requires some sort of intellegence, which women in general don't have.
That's why I'm also sceptic that women have the right to vote. I'm not sure if they should, I mean then we have to give that right to shimps, who are much more intellegent by women. Which is proven by science. Although I think shimps are cute and all, do I not want them to vote. The same thing about women.
Women should be more like a horse, be happy to be mounted. (If you now say "mount a horse"?) Anyhow, otherwise is a women not more more intellegent that this creature. Which means that even a dog is more intellegent.
But I am just joking, women are as intellgent as any other normal human being(men). Or atleast more intellegent then a tomato.

Certainly, you are not suggesting that one's appearance has anything to do with wether they hold their faith in themselves, or in an imagined being, or even wether they have faith to begin with? There are other physical sexual denominations that would be listed under 'other' (EG, hermaphrodite)... and 'undisclosed' simply means that the person desires no special treatment that unfairly might come from others knowing this knowledge.
How can we know that said tomato is not the greatest genius currently present in the universe? I do not appreciate the horse analogy... o.o but I'm not going to grill you too hard just for acting stupid

You shouldn't be so nieve Giff. I was tempted to grill you but it is best that I don't.
