UPC Driving the Women Away?

There is often a case made (here and otherwise) that the UPC is chasing away or at least repelling that half of humanity known as the female sex. I remember when Robert Sabin was doing his public remake, that he made the case as well.

So here is my question; If we are, in fact, repelling the females, and in turn denying them the message of Christ and him crucified, then why are there such a disproportionate amount of women in the UPC pews?

I could never understand this. Furthermore, it is my observation that many women will testify how they are drawn to a simpler lifestyle at least somewhat apart of the trappings of style and fashion.

This leads me to question the charge of the UPC repelling women.

What do you think??

PS
This is not a standards thread! Please take your pro/con arguments elsewhere.
