I'm 21 and male, so I should be a seinen reader.
Considering that hentai falls under the seinen demographic that would probably be true (though there are quite a few non-hentai seinen series I read/watch as well).
A lot of the stuff I look at is more Shonen, I guess.
Shoujo art style and story lines are immediately off-putting to me and I find Josei typically too realistic for my tastes.

Wow, a perfect 50/50 in the poll.
I'm a 15 year old girl and I read a bit of everything but I do mostly read shoujo manga but some of my favourite manga are shounen (Claymore etc.) along with shoujo ones (Skip Beat etc.).
EDIT: Yeah I noticed, no longer a 50/50 but it's still pretty close

I'm a girl and I read both shoujo and shonen... not so much josei and seinen though...
But I know lots of girls who read shonen (esp bleach)
Funny thing is, I read more shoujo but my favourite mangas are mostly shonen...

Most of the stuff I read has me withing the target audience (currently seinen, but shounen applies since that's when I started reading manga). I've read a couple of shoujo and josei manga (some of the popular ones), but it's pretty hard to find one that appeals to my interests (much easier to just stick to shounen/seinen.)

Yes and no. I'm a girl and I do read a lot of shoujo, but I also read a lot of shounen too. If i like it, i read it, doesn't matter if it's shounen or shoujo for me, as long as it's good ^^

I'm a girl and I do read shoujo manga's and I do enjoy them but I love shounen just the same.
But I personally dislike josei or seinen, it's not my thing I guess.

M, 19. I'll read anything I find interesting except yaoi. That'll never happen.

I'm a girl and I mostly read shoujo, but of course I also read some shounen, josei and seinen....
I read pretty much all of them, but if I had to pick a favorite demographic, yeah, seinen!
