Do You Judge People Based on Their E-Mail Addresses?

Do you still have an AOL e-mail address? You're probably an overweight person who has never left the country. Prefer G-mail? Breathe a sigh of relief: You're relatively cool.

According to a Hunch.com survey of 700,000 users, people can be easily stereotyped based on their e-mail domain. Here is a summary of some of the site's findings:

G-mail

--Users are most likely to be thin young men ages 18-34 who are college-educated and not religious.
--They tend to be politically liberal, single and childless.
--They live in cities and have traveled to five or more countries.
--They're career-focused.
--They read blogs, have an iPhone and laptop and listen to music via MP3s and computers.

Yahoo!

--Users are most likely to be overweight women ages 18-49 who have a high school diploma and are spiritual, but not religious.
--They tend to be politically middle of the road, in a relationship of 1-5 years, and have children.
--They live in the suburbs or in rural areas and haven’t traveled outside their own country.
--Family is their first priority.

AOL

--Users are most likely to be overweight women ages 35-64 who have a high school diploma and are spiritual, but not religious.
--They tend to be politically middle of the road, in a relationship of 10+ years, and have children.
--They live in the suburbs and haven’t traveled outside their own country. Family is their first priority.

Hotmail

--Users are most likely to be young women of average build ages 18-34 (and younger) who have a high school diploma and are not religious.
--They tend to be politically middle of the road, single, and childless. Hotmail users live in the suburbs, possibly still with their parents, and have traveled to up to five countries.

That said, Hunch also points out that the truly young and hip don't even use e-mail much anymore, except as a gateway to social networking. And what's so cool about G-mail anyway?
