Where are the female puzzlers?

Carnut · January 28, 2011, 11:48:48 AM

These days with women being on an equal footing nearly everywhere and us being told that apart from the obvious physical differences they are just the same as us guys (yeah, right...) and with a scandal this week in the UK about football commentators being rude about female match officials, it occurred to me - is there one single woman (and I don't mean an unmarried one!) on AutoPuzzles?

All those members and we are all blokes? Isn't there even one woman out there who is an expert or even interested in rare cars?

If there is - please make yourself known - we will have huge respect for you!

I guess we are Ents...

Never forget Beverly Rae Kimes. She was the master of automotive history.

There are a few signed up that I know of but all of them except one or two were personal acquaintances of mine who signed on here to access attachments.

We once had an aussie girl, name of helen m, with a nice avatar too:
http://www.autopuzzles.com/forum/index.php?action=profile;u=1874
She posted 45 posts, earned a few points, and posted a few puzzle of her own.

Come back, helen!

maybe she was deterred by the "useful accessoires" topic...

Otto Puzzell · January 29, 2011, 08:43:01 AM

To hell with her, then.

I tried to persuade a car-mad friend of mine to sign up - don't know if she has yet though....

I'm confident we will have a new female member.
She will have a huge library to look into, but she will not join us before several years...

Does this mean what I read into it? C'mon tell us some good news

Congratulations PJ.
Hope you have better luck than I had - I have 3 kids and none of them are remotely interested!
Grandson shows promise though...!

I hope they have it in pink!

Woo hoo! It's a girl!!!!

woodinsight · January 31, 2011, 03:03:43 PM

My youngest daughter is very interested in cars (perhaps an AutoPuzzles candidate in the future)
Congratulations PJ and I hope she'll follow your passion in due course.

Otto Puzzell · January 31, 2011, 05:24:08 PM

That's great news, PJ - sincere congratulations.

Paul Jaray · January 31, 2011, 05:25:09 PM

Tank you all!

Carnut · March 02, 2011, 04:48:36 AM

Do we have a female member?

I see our latest member is mollymhoon and her email address is molly@... so I figure she must be a lady!

You are very welcome on AutoPuzzles and we look forward to your contributions very much.

Carnut · March 03, 2011, 11:39:47 AM

Crikey and another!
Welcome to debora.
We go all this time without any ladies then get 2 in 2 days.
Look forward to having you on board.

Carnut · March 11, 2011, 07:55:13 AM

Well, they say things happen in threes and today we welcome our third female puzzler - debra150.

We very much look forward to her contributions!

Carnut · March 11, 2011, 10:33:00 AM

Which of our 3 4 new ladies is going to be the first to score a point then?!

pnegyesi · March 11, 2011, 11:26:59 AM

I don't think they joined to solve puzzles. I recall two of our female puzzle members joined to inform us about important details on cars their relatives built. It was very helpful, but don't expect 'em to solve Brazilian one-offs any time soon
