Be careful. A lot of the down on their luck guys seem to be the same people posting repeatedly under new screen names to ask the same questions again.
Troll threads aside, I think young guys tend to need some advice more, as they are the pursuers and are trying to figure things out.
I always viewed it as a lot of people over 30 (both men and women) and then a lot of guys under 30 with the only demographic missing is women under 30... but they come and go and don't stick around. I also think Checkered24 is right, a lot of the posts are the same person posting under new screen names a lot. I am also under the impression that most of the women here are married (at least more so than the men). But I never counted.
Also, I think lovesmountains is right too... women talk about this stuff to girlfriends... they read realtionship books, etc. How often do men do that? Do men really sit around talking about girlfriend woes to each other? I have guy friends and I've never seen them do that (but they will talk to me in private about such stuff). It just seems to be something most men don't do for whatever reason. The forum is a great place for guys to come and talk.

Some young women have a ton to figure out, too. "Why do the guys come onto me sexually?" "Why are they so aggressive/in-my-face?" "Where are the nice guys"? "Why does everyone ignore me?" "What can I do to get him to like me?" "I'm not pretty enough. What can I do?" "The guys are bullying/teasing me at school. What should I do?" "My mom says I can't get implants, but I get ignored by the boys. What can I do?" "I don't know how to talk to boys. I'm shy." "This guy I kinda like looks at me a lot, but never talks to me. What does it mean? What should I do?" "How can I get the guys' attention? I never get asked out. They don't know I"m alive." "How can I be one of the popular girls?"
I think it may be because women in general have real life girlfriends to talk about this stuff with whereas the younger guys don't have those kinds of friendships.

^These.
Not that women don't also have plenty of questions,
just that it seems females have more other opportunities/outlets for asking/discussing (whatever the reasons).
Because those are the worst times in dating for both genders. There's a reason why you never see any under 25 year old woman saying she has problems getting dates
