Who Do You Prefer to Make Friends With? A Poll!

[queerbychoice]

Because I'm curious, and I've browsed you people's friends lists often enough to have seen different befriending trends among different people.

(Note: the first demographic factor below is "age"; it got squashed into the preliminary introduction because LiveJournal's poll maker is stupid that way.)

The first person I ever added to my friends list was cd332. He was a friend from Yahoo who I badgered into starting a LJ account.

Since then I've only added transgendered persons. But not all of the transgendered persons that I read or read my journal. They are all people who I gave a LJ code to and who I want to help, however distantly, even if they themselves or their journals aren't really compelling.

I gave a code to a suicidal drug-addicted 8th grader a few days ago, who was someone I would definitely not want on my friends list (thus, I did not add her) but who wrote REALLY good fiction which was available on her website, and I decided that merited a code. I'm still not sure whether I regret that decision or not, because I find most of the stuff she's putting in her new journal a bit, erm . . . disturbing.

Oh well.
