I rarely see black iPhones being carried by members of either sex these days. And I blend right in, even though this girl got a white iPhone because she thought it would be different!
 
From the looks of the poll, male forum members greatly out number females. It is all it proves. Everyone knows that white is a little girlie:p
 
After looking at the usernames from my other poll, I think females might like white iPhones more, and males might prefer black iPhones. Let's test this hypothesis!

Please answer the poll.

Edit: I am male and all my iPhones have been black.

I am female, I had the black 3GS but went with the white iphone 4S , I am now getting the white iphone 5 on launch day.

I love the black, don't get me wrong, it's so classy looking, but the white just appeals to me more, because it "pops" and the fact that the black is so hard to clean! it shows up every single fingerprint and that annoys me , scratches on the white are not as visible

Male and white :D:D:D

You forgot to add gay! :D

Male
black of course!

lol
 
Interesting poll, op!

Funny that not even the majority of women prefer a white phone (you couldn't give my wife a white phone). I agree that white just doesn't look sleek and washes out screen colors. That's why white TVs are such a bad idea.

Whatever works for you though.
 
I'm a guy and I ordered the white iPhone (my first one). I've got nothing against the black color, I just thought the white looked more polished.
 
I ordered a black iPhone and I'm female. I also ordered a purple case and who knows, may get a pink case too.
 
Statistical analysis update

MAJOR NEWS: The difference between male and female color preference is now statistically significant. Females like white more than males.

p = 3.3% by Fisher's exact test, one-tailed.

Votes cast: 396.
 
Black male with a white iPhone, white iPad, and a white wife. Now that I think about it, that's kind of weird. :p


Also my wife as a black iPhone and black iPad.
 
I'm female & had a white 3GS and a black 4 but only because the white ones weren't available (fire-pissed about that, BTW). Was deeply envious of everyone I saw with the white 4 once they did launch, so I got a white 4S. I just got a white iPad 3 and can't wait to get my white iP5.
