Personally, if anyone found out my phone number indirectly
(i.e. without asking for it specifically) and then called
me up, I would be suspicious.  I prefer things to be aboveboard;
also, I have had several negative experiences with people
like that.  I am generally hesitant about giving out my phone
number to anyone I don't know; perhaps if men would offer me
*their* phone number I would be more responsive (and also
feel more in control of the situation, and less like a pick-up).

As regards the small number of women that respond to net.singles,
I agree with Beth;  it's probably because there just aren't that
many.
