Meta: Who are Mgoblog readers?

Submitted by Erik_in_Dayton on

While making a rude joke about mGrowOld's age yesterday*, I found myself wondering about the demographics of the blog.  I also wondered about this in the last day or two when a number of people said they were at Michigan in the late part of the last decade, which struck me as not too long ago to have still been in college...So, do we have information on the age, sex, place of residence, school (Michigan or other), hand orientation (left, right, amphibious), preferred pagan god, etc. of the average Mgoblog reader?  I vaguely remember something that Brian posted saying that we're a bunch of men, but I don't recall much beyond that. 

EDIT: See Seth's post below.  One snapshot of the readership showed us to be, speaking very generally, a group of 30-something Eurasian men.  We were reasonably diverse in terms of age, race, income, and having or not having kids.  In terms of gender, we were...not so balanced.  

 

*If it makes you feel better, mGrowOld, you have a lovely wife, while I am left in the same place as Mexican Milhouse.

Both my parents are Michigan alumni, so I was born and raised correctly. Obviously my username tells you I didn't attend but I've been a fan all my life.

and its:  Fuck the police!

When you write F the police we all know what you mean to say but we also know that you are too afraid to say it, so it loses any purpose it might have...

some advice: I try to always remember that individual policemen aren't bad people; its the entire fucking system that makes them the equivalent of hired thugs to the mob (AKA the good ole boys club that runs our country)...  so don't hate the cops, hate the lawmakers...
