    TE Forum Age Distribution

    To disable ads, please log-in.

    I tried searching for something like this but "age" is invariably to short a term to use in a search. Blehhh.

    Anyway, I was just really curious about the age distribution here. I seem to be in a twenty-something minority (at least that's the feeling I get) but I could be wrong.

    Still too early to tell the distribution. I am feeling on my own too, but not as young!

    Shouldn't be a problem, Reesha. After all, you really don't want to contribute to any discussion threads on menopause or perimenopause?

    But you might be right in terms of feeling young-overwhelmed. At least you get latest scoop on what lies ahead in life... Don't freak out.
    Some of those categories, look far-fetched...early 1900's.. we should crown the TE member who gets into the those categories.

    Haha, it doesn't bother me at all! I just think it's really interesting is all! I would think that there would be a larger percentage of younger woman using this forum because in many ways we're 'the internet generation'... Those raised with the web. At the same time, I'm glad to see many women older than me using the internet as a social mechanism just fine My mom is 53 and just loves www.librarything.com, especially the social aspect!

    Also, it is especially encouraging to see so many women in their forties and fifties who are still enjoying (perhaps even more than I am) cycling!

    Ahaha, yeah... I was kind of hesitant to make them, but you never know! My grandparents are in their nineties and use the web with the help of my uncle... so I suppose it's not too far fetched for a senior lady using the web and cycling!!

    I like this thread, facts and figures fascinate me. Must have taken you a while to work out all the dates.

    Hey, I hope I am that senior lady in years to come, still using the web and cycling!

    I like facts and figures too, and as a co-worker just joked with me - all the world is a bell curve. And just look at the poll so far - a bell curve.

    Velcro will secure the tiara to your helmet very nicely.

    Maybe the original question, instead of over 50, is to ask under age 30.

    Sometimes more meaningful and just as accurate to have folks answer like this: http://forums.teamestrogen.com/showthread.php?t=7782

    We can only trust that no troll will answer the poll. (What a poem.)
