Thank you, Xachariah. I didn't know that the gender disparity was so vast! My response would have varied somewhat, otherwise.

Back to the actual topic of couch surfing. Does anyone have a strong feeling that a couchsurfing.org subgroup would be better than a Google map? It's really easy to make a map; one can do it here.

Is the goal to get a map widget on the front page similar to the Meetup one, or to get a link to the map on the front page?
