No one likes to be stereotyped, but generalizations exist and they are real. Most things in life are a bell shaped curve, with a certain number of people being less than average and a certain number of people being more than average.
What I found in this thread is people discussing averages and generalizations... then someone coming in and totally flying off the handle for some odd reason.
Listen, no one is making a statement about any individual here, only about the \"pool\" in general. If you took anything you read here personally, you took it the wrong way. Odds are you are an outlier, you are not the \"average\".
I consider myself open minded and I haven\'t found anything offensive in this thread aside from the occasional snarky comment by someone trying to be funny.
My point is most of you have no idea what the average woman thinks about, or is interested in, or why they got into photography, and are just sitting around on here making assumptions and generalizations, for absolutely no purpose. My pointing out that is is offensive, and it is demeaning to women isn\'t me flying off the handle.
