Aussie girls...stand and be counted! Huzzah!!

[Jenny07]

To all those Aussie girls out there who have not joined up to Susan's and lurk in the shaddows, don't be shy and take a deep breath, let us know you're out there. Personally it did take some courage but it was the best thing I have ever done.
There is a lot of support out there for you, so come one come all.

We don't bite but Cindy does brand each and everyone of us.
I personally like whips.

I haven't branded anyone since I joined the Sisters of Mercy and went into the convent. 

I'm now reformed

I still have posession of the brands, so if a branding is needed, just let me know.

I never joined the convent.. 

[Jenny07]

Thanks for clearing that up Kelly.
It's almost pain free, well at least free.

Be afraid very afraid.

Sydney.
That should bring the weighting a closer to expected distributions.

[Catherine Sarah]

Well, here's another 'Sydneyite' weighing in.
Looks like we have a quorum for a get together.
Any one for the Kirribilli Club?

[Jenny07]

I knew you were lurking somewhere out there Catherine

Saving the best to last, Jenny

[Emmaline]

Oh,  I am an import too.  Born in uk.  Live in Sydney.

[Catherine Sarah]

Well, for those who are new to Sydney or are new to the community; perhaps thinking of coming out, or whatever. There is a regular dinner held each fortnight at the 5 Dock RSL Club, at which some of Susan's family attend.
The club is very safe, with local parking and transport. Come join us in how ever you wish to present. PM me if you want further detail. The next dinner will be January 16 at 7:00pm.

Thanks Catherine! Great to know. I'll PM you about dates, etc.

I know the following information will really be totally meaningless - but I just played around with the statistics you collected here.
With these figures just for fun -
Rate of "Aussie girls" per capita of States-
Ranking most to least- (approx. only) -
Tasmania - 1 in 1/2 million
NSW - 1 in 1 million
Vic - 1 in 1.4 million
WA - 1 in 2.5 million
Qld - 1 in 4.6 million
Tassie "wins" unless more of our sisters own up!

Andrea

[Cindy]

Andrea!

You forgot THE state!

[nepla]

But if I add South Australia you win!
South Australia - 1 in 0.4 million
Tasmania - 1 in 1/2 million (0.5 million)
NSW - 1 in 1 million
Vic - 1 in 1.4 million
WA - 1 in 2.5 million
Qld - 1 in 4.6 million

Did not take you long

Andrea

[LordKAT]

Cindy always wins. You can't pull the wool over a genius's eyes.

[Emmaline]

Unless its angora.

I always knew I was one in a million, but nice to see maths confirm it.

[Cindy]

Nice one 1/0.4  Ahhhh

[Jamie D]

But if I add South Australia you win!
South Australia - 1 in 0.4 million
Tasmania - 1 in 1/2 million (0.5 million)
NSW - 1 in 1 million
Vic - 1 in 1.4 million
WA - 1 in 2.5 million
Qld - 1 in 4.6 million

What the numbers are telling me is that we have quite a few members of our community who are not being reached.

The most recent stats I have seen put self-identified transgendered persons at 0.3% of the general population - or roughly 1 in every 333 persons.

Your calculations, above, address only MtF, so let's say, in absolute terms, 1 out of every 650 persons (w.a.g.).  And we know that not all of our Aussie girls log in every day.

Just the same, let's get to work on outreach ladies.  You are our most active standard bearers!

Keep your eyes open for your sisters locally (sorry about that Jenny07).

"WA - 1 in 2.5 million"

Although I know of others in W.A thanks to facebook groups, I do not know them personally. But to possibly be the only W.A girl on this site...GAH!!!

No wonder I feel so lonely.

[Cindy]

Not to worry Charley Bea, our Tassie sister is using her wrong head, and gets confused with the ten fingers (on each hand)
