I've heard anecdotal evidence that 10-20% of 4men paysite members are actually women. I was recently told by the Suicide Girls webmaster that 50% of their members are female which is obviously extremely high. What's the percentage at your site?

Wow 50% is crazy but suicide girls is a different kind of siteSIGS ARE GAY

We don't ask our customers what gender they are. However in the past when we estimated gender break down by the billing name we saw that about 30% of our memberships were from female names."Every normal man must be tempted, at times, to spit on his hands, hoist the black flag, and begin slitting throats."

Hard to say actually....most paysites catering to men don't gather demographic info from their members when they sign up -- like sex. Most don't even have little surveys running to gather that info...
In most cases, the only way to tell is by the name of the CC holder that's joined. Even then you can't claim that it's solo women that are joining -- you've got couples and the ever-elusive bf/husband/roommate/son who uses their gf/wife/roommate/mom's CC to sign up....

Sure, I realize most sites won't have totally reliable break-downs. But I'd still be very interested in educated guessesOriginally posted by sweetums

For example, I suspect that the CC holder names *is* a decent rough-and-ready indicator of female membership, as the female CC names who are actually male members should be more than balanced by the male CC names who are actually women. If anything the number of female CC names is probably less than the actual number of women viewing the site because a fair chunk of those male names will be couples.

Our gay sites get a lot of female members. They write in with more feedback than the guys too.

I don't ask the members of my pay site their sex. I think they probably want to maintain as much privacy as possible.SIG TOO BIG! Maximum 120x60 button and no more than 3 text lines of DEFAULT SIZE and COLOR. Unless your sig is for a GFY top banner sponsor, then you may use a 624x80 instead of a 120x60.Comment

I think any numbers you hear are probably inflated at least a little by basly guys using their wife or girlfriend's card to join.

I've joined tons of paysites, but paysite owners can't tell I'm a female because I have a foreign name! My name isn't a typical name Lisa or Mary Ann, I'm asian and my parents gave me the most messed up sounding, ugliest, hard to pronounce name ever
I never use my real name and no one calls me by my real name in real life ( I have a nickname) except on all my legal docs, birth certificate, credit card and so forth...Comment

may be worth it just to put a silent poll on there somewhere like "annonomysly tell us if your male or female" with 2 little check box.
this might help target your existing members better and increase retention

There probably aren't many paysites asking the gender of their members, however the name on the credit cards should give a rough idea of the gender breakdown. As I said earlier in this thread:Originally posted by UnseenWorld

If the percentage of females members is significant (and my guess is that it's at least 10% for most sites) it would be well-worthwhile taking that into consideration when selling a site and when tuning it for member retention.

Plus it would also suggest that there's a massive untapped opportunity in terms of marketing porn directly to women, who are afterall about half of the online population!Comment

Actually in order to know whether this showed that men were the horniest you'd first need to know what percentage of your referrals were men and what percentage were women. It may be that you're referring 30 males for every one female. And it that were the case it might suggest that they're equally horny!Originally posted by lil2rich4u2

BTW, I have no doubt whatsoever that men are more interested in porn than women I simply find it intriguing that male-oriented porn sites might be attracting 10-20% (or more!) female members. And if that is the case, I suspect that adult web masters have drastically underestimated the potential for 4women porn!

20% of our members are female and about 10% our couples. One thing is for sure...women have great credit and their cards are usually not declined. Yes, there are a few that call and dispute charges but most of them pay their bills.
We love female customers!

OK, so far we have the percentage of female CC names used for memberships at 4MEN pornsites as:
SuicideGirls - 50%.
NetRodent - 30%.
ronin - 10%.
Que? - 5%.
Interlude - hardly any.
sworld - 20%.
That's an average of 19%!
Anyone else want to contribute some numbers?Comment

Suicide girls isn't your average paysite though, that # shouldn't be included.Originally posted by Groove

I was always at roughly 20%, just going off names. But in the amateur market the percentage is a little higher, especially if you are promoting a bi woman

Socks (ASS) - 13%
That's an average of 14%.

If 4men paysites have an everage 14% female membership. I think that speaks volumes for the potential profitability of sites designed specifically for women!Comment
