Nothing more specific than "over 18"? You're leaving out an awful lot of a groups, lol. I'm female and 29.

Shouldn't it be "18", not "<18" and "18>"?
American/European difference again. American use is operand operator operand (with magnitude holding the order), Europeans is operand operator (no set order).

Hence, x<18 / 18<x for US - x<18/x>18 for Europe, x's being invisible.

And there's also the other problem :)
I don't see any good reason why magnitude should dictate order for inequalities.

It makes it easier for simpletons to understand it. Instead of having to remember which symbol is greater than and which is less than they just have to remember larger number go first.

I know it sounds incredible rude to say that but that is actually the reason for most of the changes that the US has made.
How do you take into account -2 > -4, and other negative numbers? How do you take into account variables? Seriously, this is simple Grade 4 maths, it's not rocket science.

Male and 20.

Sorry, I don't know how to answer the poll. All the options say less than 18, or more than 18, or both. Argh!

Male, 18 next month.

Also, the way we did it in england was the crocodile eats the bigger number so 18> would mean someone is under 18. Works same way for <18.

Female, 24 going on 692. Also, I'm surprised at the lack of female response here, I personally know more females on here than the post shows. Not to mention the whole gender divide in gamers is vanishing, it's something like 42~% of gamers are female now.

To the women: Come on out and vote, it's anonymous, you don't have to worry about mouth-breathers stalking you after responding (A lot of women won't even reveal their real gender online,for fear of being creeped on, or otherwise harassed)

Also your poll options could've been a bit better
I'll agree about the poll but I won't mention search bars. As for the info you want,

23 and male.

male and 14 *glances at avatar* Yes I know Samus is a girl, thanks.
Was hoping for a more detailed description from the OP though, I mean did he expect anything BUT 50+% for the 18+ male section?

I'm a 24-year-old male, but I don't know which poll option I'm supposed to take.
