Do you trust men or women more ?

Neither

Peace

All Men are dogs.

Those that claim they are not are lying dogs.

Neither... Both.....

Doesn't make any difference.

Honestly, I would have to say females. I know it's sexist but there's so few of us still in IM, I just tend to trust them more. Of course the ones I can think of off the top of my head have built their reps and deserve the trust I place in them. That's not to say there aren't male IMers I trust, there are quite a few I trust.

In real life, neither LOL. Females tend (warning broad generalizations here) to be catty and manipulative, males tend to only want one thing LOL.

Doesn't make a difference.

However, if it's a gender-specific problem then I'm thinking I'd be more inclined to trust a female for a female problem or a male for a male problem (or an "authority figure" of either gender -- like a doctor -- if I think it's relevant).

For example...

How to deal with menopause? I suspect females would trust other females more on the subject (or health professionals of either gender).

How to deal with an un-descended testicle? I suspect males would trust other males more on this subject (or health professionals of either gender).

But aside from those types of situations, then it absolutely doesn't matter. Like if I want to buy IM info, it doesn't matter if it's from a male or female. My level of trust doesn't vary by gender for that stuff.

It's personality period.
It seems like everybody's in love with Mr. Kern
according to the posts I have viewed on this forum
and for good reason he has personality and
delivers on his promises the best he can.
There are also many women with the same qualities.
You just know when you have a good email relationship
and continue to subscribe to them. Male or Female.

Male or female, it doesn't matter. I don't trust anyone.

i do not trust both of them when its online, because we do not know does he/she honest to give data for us, i just focus on what the offer and transaction.

Instinctually, I would like to truust women more. SERIOUSLY!!!!!!

BUT, the truth is that I don't feel EITHER is more likely to be trusted!

Just yesterday, on Stargate universe, elly remembers that a woman distracted him at a moment that could have caused him to make a DANGEROUS mistake! He asks her if she did that on purpose and she said "NO, I KNEW it was going to happen, but I had NO idea WHEN". That answer is TYPICAL of many females. An answer that leaves you wondering "Did she say YES, or NO?"! Males, by nature, TEND to be more direct, but obviously sometimes learn such behaviour. still, there IS the idea of "feminine wiles". Women often seem to think men are 100% naive about such things, but we aren't. Maybe it is the testosterone or something that makes it almost endearing to us TO A DEGREE.

BTW Dictionary:

BTW I based these opinions on decades of PERSONAL interaction, and much was before many would do anything to alter such things. So I'm sure I got the sexes right. Women salespeople are more likely to bring emotion into it, distract, touch, etc... Men are more likely to simply lie, or maybe try to pull you into male things if you are male. At least that is how they act towards a man.

I trust women than men. But, only if she can prove that "I'm a real women"

If i identify that the product or whatever is coming from a real source, i tend to trust women more. They are more sincere, like it or leave it.

Generally, on the Net, I've learned to trust no one until they earn it. As for transactions, I have an equal amount of men and women who have stolen sites from me using the old Paypal "I didn't authorize this transaction" scam.

I would have to say neither. Because people are just not honest these days.

No one by default. They have to earn it.

This a touchy subject.

Of course it depends on the person, but generally speaking, I tend to trust women marketers more WHEN I REALLY KNOW ITS A WOMAN who is doing the marketing.

I get so many spam offers and most of them are using women's names. UNLESS, all of those spammers are really women! LOL

I think it's a psychological thing that we tend to think of women as the caring, nurturing loving gender that wouldn't do anything to harm us. (ex wives excluded)

I really never thought about it. I guess it really does not matter to me.

Depends on the avatar

Wow im impressed, thought we would of gotten the "your sexist wackos brigade" by now

Good stuff.

I personally tend to trust women more...when it comes to IM at least

Actually I would never trust a woman with anything of any importance! lol Tin hat on (and of course only kidding).

For me sex is irrelevant, and unreliable. I'm sure there are many lovely "women" online are men who have learned some guys are suckers for a pretty face.

Sex shouldn't really come into ones analysis of a business persons trustworthy-ness.

Gender doesn't even enter into the equation for me. Neither does race or age. What matters to me is whether or not I believe the product I'm considering is something that I will help me accomplish something I need accomplished.

doesnt make any difference to me

Does it really matter in the first place and what difference does it make?

'One cannot be betrayed if one has no people' - Kobayashi

Makes no difference to me, if the person can sell or is offering something that I have an interest in then I going to go with their product or service.

I absolutely trust men online more.


By that I mean:

I trust that online men are actually men WAY more than I trust that online women are actually women.

...only the cat....until she s***s everywhere!!

Rich

Honestly......trust starts when the check clears the bank & it really makes no difference to me who signs it...male or female.

aGAIN! We DID this one already!

Sylvia

Its not about the gender. It's on the performance and the way they sell their product/ services.

I don't have a preference. Most important is that I trust myself.

When dealing over the internet it does not matter if they are male or female. As for trust, I do not think that anyone trusts anyone until that trust has been earnt.

Well,women tend to be more trustworthy and there is a need to exercise due diligence.

Depends... In IM and stuff, I trust men more. Including programming, landing pages and stuff.

When it comes to graphics, baby products, health products I feel inclined to trust the female.

When it comes to personal growth, more of men and less of women... Because I haven't seen absolutely amazing women providing that great service in the industry.

Men, ofcourse - who can deny one of the greatest men alive? - Eben Pagan... You naturally trust him. Men do have a lot of wisdom and are much more strict. Less dramatic

When you read a copy from a girl, it makes little or no sense to me. But when I read the one written by a guy, it makes sense. The system or whatever to me...

Isn't a gender issue -- both sexes can be loyal and both sexes can betray. You take your chances, so use your head before taking anyone into your confidence.

When it comes to trusting someone, gender does not into play at all. It's all about credibility and integrity and it does not matter if the person I transact with is male or female.

Neither. It doesn't matter what gender.

I'm having trouble believing that people are taking this silly question seriously.

Hmm, tricky one.

I dont think this depends as guys can be just as sneaky and deceiving as women. But I've found that women tend to be more "customer oriented" when it comes to support because they care more.

At least that's from my experience

Nick

When it comes to do business with I trust men more, I have no idea why :p

Off the mark, I never trust anyone. Even someone that seems 100% genuine, but I have come to find that women are as untrustworthy as men, this stigma that the men are the 'dogs' has now been taken over by our 'chav' society (well that's for the UK anyway)

Gender would be the last thing I'd base my trust on. I know for some people here, based on the comments I've read, it seems like they already have some preconceived notions, but I feel like I'm pretty much a blank slate when it comes to evaluating a sales pitch, and issues of gender don't really enter my mind at all.

As strange as it sounds, I tend to trust men more, if only by the smallest of a fraction. The reason for this is that for many years it was considered a normal sales practise to place a woman as the sales head for more trust... whenever I read sales copy by a woman there is always this slight doubt in the back of my head.

I would trust women more than men when it comes to transactions or reading sales copies.

Hmmm...i would generally say women.

When it comes to a video presentation, I prefer a male voice. Probably because the internet marketing scene is widely dominated by men and therefore male voices are what we're used to. So I guess when I hear a woman voice in a video it kind seems odd.

Honestly neither but that is my own self defense mechanism.

I have noticed that certain Male IMers flock to females selling a service.
This generally tends to NOT be the people who have been here for quite awhile,
but either way quite amusing. hazzah
