We are a bunch of rich, London-based, over-educated married ladies and no mistake

I am the archetypal MNer.

Not sure what to think of that.

5000 people who are willing to take surveys, that must be worth a pretty penny to mn towers?

Well I am Mrs Average (yawning emoticon) but less educated (thickie emoticon) and more children (fertile emoticon).

More emoticons please, none of the current ones fit (except of course !)

JesusChristOtterStar · 17/11/2009 23:26

well i joined mn 5 years ago and am in the 30,000 's!

exexpat · 17/11/2009 23:24

Wasn't the survey in the summer, so lots of people were away? I didn't do it, but can see that I would have had trouble with the relationship status section - no option to put widowed, and none of the other categories fit. I know there are a few of us on here, and if Facebook can (after pressure...) do a widowed status, why not MN?

momijigari · 17/11/2009 23:12

5000 answered the survey, so how many didn't?

Slarty, the Northerners didn't answer the survey?

edam · 17/11/2009 23:03

at the '15 minutes a day' claim. Yeah, right...

Question 21: And, when you do visit the site, how long is an average visit?

I never leave 1%

Mybox · 17/11/2009 22:25

Interesting results - how many members of mumsnet are there so we can know the % of the population who responded.

muggglewump · 17/11/2009 22:18

MmeLindt, we went at the end of September and had a fantastic time.

TheCrackFox · 17/11/2009 22:17

I really thought there would have been more Scottish Mumsnetters.

LadyBlaBlah · 17/11/2009 22:14

You can tell on the high profile webchats that there are not too many posters -certainly not in the hundreds of thousands. There may be many members, but prolific posters are not that numerous

at the average income.

Swedes2Turnips0 · 17/11/2009 22:06

It's a shame if News International journalists were given the results before they were released to Mumsnetters.

I read about our voting preferences in the Times over lunch. It would have been nicer to have recieved those results on here. Especialy as I was one of the 5% of Mumsnetters who bothered to record my details.

ABetaDad · 17/11/2009 22:05

Apparently 2% of us are men which is 104 out of 5200. That is a surprise as I cant think of more than 15 blokes on here off the top of my head.

The worrying bit though is that only 1% of us are visiting as Dads - I know there are a couple of male nanies and child minders which makes me wonder what the other 50 blokes are on here doing.

Ponders · 17/11/2009 21:58

And only 31% admit to visiting here every day

(This census was anonymous, wasn't it? People's MILs & partners weren't sent the information later?)

Ponders · 17/11/2009 21:56

70% I mean - even less likely

(I only added up 30mins-1hr & 1hr-2hrs before)

Out & proud - I am online for way over 2 hours a day, AND I read the Mail online every day (but also the Guardian, & I would never ever pay cash money for the Mail)

dead, go to Active Convos and scroll down - it's in the 'Mumsnet Latest' box on the r-hand side. That's where I found it anyway.
