Now that several women replied to this discussion, I hope you’ll find someone to practice with. I speak to men and women and would say that the gender ratio of friends I met here is roughly 50/50. But I prefer to contact people myself because most users who contact me, don’t read my profile at all and are therefore in most cases not a good fit. If you want to receive fewer messages, it helps enormously to have a neutral avatar. When I display a photograph of myself I receive 5 unsolicited messages by men per day. With the current one (a cartoon character), I receive only one or two annoying messages per month. The rest are people who have actually something to say. I’m neither young nor pretty. Being female is enough to receive lots of male attention here.
