WW~

Now you're talkin'! :cool1: A) One of my dream locations for a dive trip. :diver: B) The proper ratio of women to men. :teeth:

I will await your call!

~J :teeth:

Oh well, the ratio on her trip is the inverse of what would be desired :pray: ... had that been the case, I might have had to cancel Utila and ended up spending 2 1/2 weeks on Bonaire... ;)

~J


That is very good news indeed. We had 3 or 4 trips last year where we had MORE gals than guys on the trips...one even had 3x the number of women on the trip than men. I made each one an 'official cabana boy' and each had a SD gal on each arm and then they rotated every night! This particular trip was to the Red Sea and the arab men loved the fact that all the American men on the trip had 'multiple wives'! :teeth:

Trust me...you'll be the first one I call when I have another women exceeding men trip ratio! :evilgrin:

Just for the record I'd like to develop a list of divers (guys) that would like to be on trips that have more women than men on them. Yep...I said WOMEN.

Last year we had 4 trips where the number of women EXCEEDED the number of men and we couldn't find more guys to join in the fun.

Mind you several of those trips were higher end trips...Red Sea, Australia...but hey that just means we women have good taste and we LOVE diving!

Now who else wants to join Dichotomy on our list?


List of Men Who Want to be on trips with More Women Than Men:

1. Jay aka Dichotomy
2. Bob aka pir8
3. TruckDriver
4. Keith aka KeithT4U
5. Mark aka Capn Jack aka "Mr Kleenex" :teeth:
6. Dan aka Scubatooth aka "multi-talented cabana boy" :teeth:


List of WOMEN Who Want to be on trips with More MEN Than Women: (Added by popular request but a good list to have none the less!)

1. Kamala aka WreckWench...(Oh wait...I'm always on these trips!) :evilgrin:
2. Tammy aka SeaSeeker (good to have some company)
3. Stacy aka ScubaStacy (now that's what I'm talking about!)
4. Holly aka a_fl_mermaid ! yeah! I second that!

Darn, I guess I shouldn't have an unlisted number!

WW, perhaps the dominance of women over men on the high end trips is because some of us men are lowly dive bums whereas the woman actually hold real jobs! Sigh...

Seriously? LOL. Like there are going to be any men who DON'T want to be on a female dominated trip? :birthday: But therein lies the problem . . . any trip advertised as mostly females will have SO many men sign up that it will cause the scale to tip in the other direction - - and when that happens, sign me up. :birthday:
As for me, I'm feeling pretty scubalicious.

Guys like the trips with gals...
Gals like the trips with guys (plus decent shopping)...

If only there was a diving board that could satisfy both needs...

Oh wait... There is... :birthday:

Yeah yeah you and EVERY other male I know....however the price of admission would probably be too high! :birthday:

Heck we can't get guys to go on trips when we have MORE women than men...I bet if I had a trip and it were over $3k like our Egypt or Australia trip and it were all women but one spot...we'd have a hard time find even one willing to go even if he was the ONLY guy! :birthday:
