: I was just perusing the V-Thon 98 site for some insight as to what I'm trying to get myself into and I saw in several places that the crowd was mostly male at said event.
I dont know about the last V-thon, but at the Dogma Screening there were a few females there (including myself). Like Marksman said, most of them looked like they were girlfriends/wifes, who looked like they really did not know what the hell was going on. Me on the other hand, I am dragging my husband with me.
: Just wondering if there are more females planning to try and get tickets this year or if I'm going to be throwing myself into a lion's den if I come!
These kids are a lot more behaved then they make themselves appear to me, and a lot older than you would think.
: Also - I'm trying to figure out why Kev's fans seem to be largely male - is is the comic book thing?
Kevin has what you can say is a male oriented sense of humor. Sometimes dick and fart jokes do not go over very well with the ladies. My husband was one of the main actors in a cult type film adapated from a comic book many moons ago, he is a co-creator of Indie-planet and draws his own comic book as well and really isn't the biggest fan of View Askew, so I don't believe it has anything to do with comics.
