Why is most of Coldplay´s fanbase female?

Featured Replies

I can only go by the reported numbers. Their couple networth is estimated at 48 mil pounds whereas each of Chris' bandmates has 32 mil pounds.

Also, I read an interview where Gwyneth said she didn't inherit anything from her parents, not yet anyway. Her dad wanted her to go out and make her own money.

 

True. However the Times' Rich List (which is where the 32 million figure comes from) is notoriously inaccurate. Since they don't have access to how much money each person actually has, they estimate by using "tangible assets" that are a matter of public record. In Coldplay's case this means that each of the band members is probably ascribed a fourth share in whatever value the Times places on the band as a business entity, plus the band's commonly owned property etc. They're all loaded no doubt, but I'd be surprised if they actually had anything close to that in actual personal wealth.

If you watch concert videos, there's plenty of guys in the audience. I know many male fans, including my husband and son.

Cos Edward Cullen and the doggie aren't enough for girls.

 

:nod:

 

I'm not fond of shiny disco balls and the doggie (& Co.)

I´m saying this because most of the forum members are girls and very few are male. Atleast those who post in the Coldplay section.

 

Although I already kinda noticed this, it became blatantly obvious in the recent 'Chistmas message to Coldplay' video. There was hardly any guys in it, so when I watched it I was like omg this is so fangirl-y.

 

I think irl, it's pretty evenly split between guys and girls (at least based on the few concerts I've been to). As far as the proportion who actively post on messageboards though, I agree it's definitely skewed towards chics. For example, there are a few guys I work with that are big Coldplay fans, but they certainly don't bother with messageboards and just keep asking me when Coldplay are going to have a concert here. But is the proportion of girls/guys who post here, is that just because this is a Coldplay messageboard, or does that statistic translate to messageboards across the internet as a whole (regardless of the topic)? For example, my husband visits various messageboards all the time, but never actually posts.

 

And yeah I agree with you it has nothing to do with Goopy, so for people to bring her up is moot.

there are more girls in the world :happy2:

Unfortunately that's all we have to go by in absence of a Forbes listing. In your estimation, what do you think the boys' networth is?

Or because females are more intelligent, and therefore like better music.

1- Females do like to express their feelings about things they love & fing lovable, while males tend to hide their feelings..

2- The band members are all good looking men..:wink3:

3- Girls can organize their time so that there is always some for internet surfing ( not me)

4- Coldplay section doesn't have sport discussions:laugh3:

Coldplay fanpage on FB in Thailand has 45%female fans and 55%male fans.

But most female fans talk and share things while male fans just keep quiet.

Maybe because females are more the type to go out of their way to discuss aspects of the band? Back during the Parachutes / ARoBttH era I think Coldplay were considered a more 'feminine' band, so maybe that's where it comes from? :shrug:

 

Just spitballing here.

Yeah I think women/girls talk more in general, so that'll show on a messageboard. And they're more vocal about things they like.

Well there are definitely more girls on this site. That's probably because girls update their status and post on fora more often than boys. Even on Facebook, twitter etc...

However I've seen pretty much the same amount of boys and girls at Coldplay concerts.

Finally, it can be that there are just more women in the world. I believe that the % is 60% women and 40% men.

Or because females are more intelligent, and therefore like better music.

No :phu:

So basically forums are for fangirls:lol:

 

:lol: Yes but don't tell the boys.

 

Edit: I always thought there's more boys born in the world, but men die sooner so it's pretty much even. (And then the guys are stuck with old ladies. ;))

Because most of the Coldplay members are male . . . no wait, ALL of them are :awesome: Male+Female, fits perfectly, doesn't it? And because their music is quite emotional, I believe that's also a thing loads of females fall for (they're not bad ass/cool enough to appeal to most of the male part of listeners)

 

 

:nod:

 

I was going to say the same.

 

Many girls likes emotional music.

 

At the gig in Oslo, there was a lot of girls. I didn't really saw that many boys. Of cause there was a lot of them there, but there was definitely more girls then boys.
