All of the anti-illegal protest that I have been to the women were out numbered by men at least ten to one.

I think it depends more on economic status. If you're poor, you don't want illegals coming in to compete for jobs. If you're rich, you want the illegals in order to get cheap labor, so that you don't have to pay decent wages to Americans.

If you're a politician, you want whatever the particular audience wants while you're speaking.

I don't think gender matters here, but someone else might have a better idea about that. I'd be interested to know what people thought and why.

In all honesty, on the other boards I am on it seems about 50-50.

What does it really matter?

Those who are against it, are against Illegals for the same reason - They don't belong here.

What about here though? It just seems from my own observations that those most adamantly against illegal immigration here, are females.

I think this poll should just have bluntly asked are you a:

1) Man - Anti-illegal
2) Woman - Anti- Illegal
3) Man - Pro- illegal
4) Woman - Pro- illegal

Optional --
5) Man - In the middle
6) Woman - In the middle

I guess we are 50/50 here because my DH isn't on the board but our views are the same.

Yes, I think it should say "I am a man and I am against illegal immigration" and "I am a man and I am for illegal immigration" and then the same two choices regarding women. Something like that, anyway. So there would be four choices.
