Why are there so few women here? It would seem there are only maybe a dozen registered (if that) and less than a handful of those actually post. I've seen a few have quit; doglover, msdownunder, and mockingbird (others?). What's up with that?

Go on FB or the old BS forum and ask them.

maybe it's because almost every thread ends up like this one seems to be...a bickering mess!

Maybe they don't enjoy circle jerks that occur like Groundhog Day.

Is there something in the TOS that I've missed that requires a quota of various demographic and philosophical groups, a balanced diversity? Is there evidence that the board is actively seeking to exclude certain demographics or philosophical groups?
What is wrong with a group of people who seem comfortable with each other? Why the obsession with the composition of this group?
Enquiring minds want to know.

The original subject is reasonable for discussion. However, this thread will fall until I see some evidence that people are posting relevant to that subject. As of now, the thread is a "smolder war" and that will not continue. Thanks.

Why the obsession with the composition of this group? Enquiring minds want to know. Good grief. I just asked if anybody knew why there were so few women. That's hardly an obsession. I didn't say anything was wrong with it, nor did I say anything about trying to exclude anybody. Get a grip.

Where have all the women gone?
Sounds like the title of my future memoir.

Very few threads are blocked. Good discussion with female posters is occuring. When you post to start arguments, which is your MO, threads get blocked. This one is already under warning. Ain't just a river in Egypt... You just keep making stuff up. As far as I can tell I've only had one thread locked and it was a joke one on the Nationals board. As per the chief moderator, this thread is an ok discussion for this board. If it gets locked, so be it. But it would be because of the valid topic, it would be due to nasty replies. There is a warning post that has been made. You're welcome to believe as you wish.......

What would draw other chicks to the board?

I guess he is lonely for female companionship. It seems that this would be a strange place to find companionship. Most of the women here speak as if they're married.
