What is the purpose for all of your questions and polls on the demographics of forum members? Are you compiling charts/lists for some specific purpose?

Stats are interesting.

These polls came out similar to what I had predicted:

Marital Status:
http://forums.eslcafe.com/korea/viewtopic.php?t=232722
Married: 65%
Single: 35%

Nationality:
http://forums.eslcafe.com/korea/viewtopic.php?t=232591
Canada: 52%
United States: 36%
South Africa: 5%
U.K.: 5%


…but in this poll, it appears some don't want to answer truthfully for some reason. I guess age is a touchy subject . (Not sure why.) It makes me doubt the results of this:

(Income is another touchy/uncomfortable subject for some, but lying on the internet is pathetic, childish, and weird in my opinion.)

The youngest age I've ever seen on here is 19 (from a person planning on teaching here later). I've met many 20 year olds working in public schools via the TALK program. I think the categories should be 20s/30s/40s/50s to make it non trollable. To get more accurate responses, I should make another thread.

How am I lying on the internet? By saying infowars.com is not a reputable source? By telling you Obama was in fact born in the U.S.? OK, man, sure. Whatever you say. Rolling Eyes

I believe the reason may be to ridicule those older than 30 still in TEFL.

I mean, seriously, haven't you been able to get a proper job by your age?
