My aim was to inspect producers of web sites with regard to various socio- psychological motives, emerging from the state of being in contemporary society, but I didn't put much focus on genders issue. Well, I checked it and found the following result: between men 44% are producers, while between women 18%. But it should be noted that men are also more intensive users of interactive systems, are more lonely and more narcissist, which are strong predictors of web site production. regards, Gregor ----- Original Message ----- From: "Frank Schaap" <architext@fragment.nl> To: <air-l@aoir.org> Sent: Wednesday, November 26, 2003 10:54 AM Subject: Re: [Air-l] personal homepages

Did you do a breakdown according to gender?
Most studies about internet use are about "consumption" of certain "services," but they leave out the question of who "produces" the internet. In your study, is the category of people who own a personal web site more or less equally divided between men and women, or is that category rather skewed?
