    If you truly are a free man, I applaud you. There are few of us left.

    If you only think yourself free, you may only be comparing the size of your prison cell to your neighbors.

    I don't think it's a case of being techno-phobic as much as lack of exposure and influence.

    Though I think the role of biology in behavior is generally underestimated in this case I do think it's cultural--nurture not nature.

    I think it's genes too, not just social stuff. I am just an exception to the rule. From the moment I remember myself I was a geek. Nobody "molded" me to be that way. If anything, my mother always tried to make me a lady. She failed. I can't even clean up my own house. I hate housewife work.

    All so interesting and well put. Humans are a spectrum of dis-ease of diverse states of being.
    A poll of sexual orientation would be welcome too. Perhaps:

    "How do you categorize yourself"

    purely heterosexual

    in between, or was, at sixteen

    purely homosexual

    totally disinterested in sex

    So what if God or another deity was on this forum? Don't you think we should have one for them? I mean, if the trans are getting one, I think the creator of Earth or whatever he/she hath maketh deserves one too.

    Default First Post - Female here!

    I've been a lurker for a while but have finally decided to post! I couldn't find an introductions thread in my perusal so I decided to post here!

    And the numbers don't really surprise me. Female DPs are so rare.

    That's because most girls are in the fashion design classes. By choice. And most girls spend at least as much money on shoes, t-shirts, dresses, accessories, and make-up as guys do on electronics, if not more (not that I mind, it's just true). I have 2 sisters, so I know.

    Why are girls not as involved in the behind-the-scenes of cinema? Cause they choose not to be. They want to be in front of the camera.

    I don't know any of my film buddies who would turn down a female interested in the techy-side of film-making as long as she had the same talent as anybody else. I also don't know many females at all who are into videography.

    On the flipside, I know a TON of girls who do photography. I know a lot more girls who do photography than guys. I think they find it to be more "artsy". Video isn't always "artsy".

    Perhaps they lost all their gender defining body parts in some amnesia related accident and happened to be born looking like both a guy and girl...?

    i know and like the company of many video enthusiasts, some even male, much less talented/experienced than me....some people's criteria for info swapping and camaraderie isn't limited to how much people know....

    I also don't know many females at all who are into videography.

    exactly....you need to get out more

    You're special, be glad, it's a good thing. Haha. IC was just stereotyping, not the smartest thing to do. Don't take heed.

    So now it's a ratio of about 18:1. Heh, not bad.
