Thanks to everyone who took the demographics survey last week. I was hoping to get 100 submissions and while we didn't quite get there, it is within spitting distance of that goal. And good enough I think to extrapolate for the larger population of this sub.

Even though the survey was anonymous, I won't be sharing individual responses here as promised. Any fill-in options are removed too since those are unique to a particular submission.

Here are the main takeaways that I found interesting:

  • First, what everyone wants to know: How many women are here? 11.6% of submissions identified as female. This subreddit gets 3,300 unique views per day on average. So extrapolate from that what you will.
    • This is about right on what I was expecting and actually I think pretty impressive for a seedy sex-focused r4r subreddit. Before the comments start about this place being a sausage fest, if you're looking for the mythical place where there's 10 horny women looking for hookups for every one man I have to bridge to sell you.
  • Nearly all of this subreddit is under the age of 46. 75% is under 36 with the majority of users being between 26 and 35.
  • 75% of this sub either never posts or posts yearly or less. While 60% of users reply to posts monthly or more frequently. This means that if you're not posting doing so will greatly increase your visibility to a larger pool of people.
  • 45% of you have meet up with at least one person from this subreddit. 25% have meet up with more than one person implying you've have successful and enjoyable meetups enough to keep coming back. This is actually considerably higher than I expected and think it's great to see so many people making connections here!
  • 55% of you have been using this sub for under one year. It would be interesting to do another survey in a year to see if this percentage drops or stays the same to determine if this is the sub growing with newer users or is the average amount of turnover.
  • 80% of you are satisfied with the moderation here and also that spam posts are removed in a timely manner. To that, it's nice knowing that my work is appreciated here. For the other 20% I was hoping to hear more about what you think the problems are, but there were very few comments left about that unfortunately.
