The "Poll: Ethnicity/Race" is racist yo. There's no option for "I prefer not to answer" or "Mixed" like most US surveys are now.
What's up with that?
By the way, I'm white, BUT I prefer not to answer!
Well, I think the obvious choice here is not to answer that poll.

But then you discriminate the people who don't want to answer the poll by not giving them an appropriate answer on the poll... oh, wait

Interesting fact: The age distribution as it is right now is fitted quite well by a bell curve using the following parameters:
Mean = 21.8
Variance (or sigma^2) = 16.3
Prescale Factor = 6855 * 1/ sqrt[ 2 pi sigma^2] = 677

Blue line is the data
Red line is the fit

Someone please explain to me why a white is having problems with racism. I saw another white guy at the airport who refused to fill in their race. Why?

Wow there's 100 girls on TL?

Actually, in America, the only way to legally discriminate is to be bigoted against white males. Various laws have forced a "reverse discrimination". Use a racial slur directed at anyone who isn't white, get your ass kicked, the guy gets off (most places, obviously there will be some variance for community.) Use a racial slur directed against a white guy, and there's a good chance that if the white guy swings, he'll go to jail for a hate crime for discrimination against the way they like to talk or something. (Don't know if this has happened, but the atmosphere created by the laws makes most people not really want to try and find out.)
Oh, and lets not forget jobs. Equally qualified? White male is the last candidate to be hired, with decisions being based on gender and ethnicity "equality". Very equal, if the white guy is screwed for being born in the majority demographic for a lot of job positions.

I think it might have to do something with the massive anti racism movement. Basically if you even mention race, or skin colour, people think of you as a nazi.
Not saying racism's a good thing, but basically where I'm from you're considered either racist or inbred if you have a flag on your lawn ^^

I'm a bit confused about why so many people said they have an account but no posts. Whats the point of an account if you're not gonna post?
Of course there are some that just haven't found what something they want to post about but it doesn't seem very likely that that is the case for all of them.
Either way, interesting poll results. I was actually surprised that there were over 100 women on the site.

>100 females, most successful gaming website ever? :D

Motbob (Or as we should all call him, Motbok) never ceases to come up with cool stuff.
Though I'm kind of surprised there are more people from USA than Western Europe on TL.
Also why is there option for both Arabic and Middle Eastern/Arabic? D: I got confused by it and I'm not sure if I picked correctly :D

Location: other
I am from Guatemala / Central America, you (yes you all) always leave out Central America =(

This can't be right. Are there really that many more Americans than Eu0ropeans on TL? Wow..
I think the poll needs to be up longer to give accurate information. It's almost alarming that there are so many Canadians in comparison to Europeans O_o
