Well, speaking for myself, I am 100% woman, and have talked to one guy from here on the phone, and also skyped with him. I have met 2 local guys in person, at a coffeeshop to start. Not always available when the guy is, tho, so timing can be tricky.
As far as I'm concerned, I have no issues at least letting the guy see my face on skype or hear my voice on the phone, because I have nothing to hide as far as my gender is concerned. I am who I say I am and will prove it, no problem.
