Looking to be a pretty clear 2:1 split, but it's still pretty respectable that one-third of the forum users are females. It's certainly a lot higher than most "geeky" websites which are heavily male-dominated.

25/13 can be considered statistically equivalent to 26/13 (4% more), which is a 2:1 ratio:

26 males + 13 females = 39
26 out of 39 = 2/3 are male
13 out of 39 = 1/3 are female

There it is! <fake signing as Guoguodi and giving it to the teacher>

2:1 is made up of three parts, thus women account for around 1/3 indeed so far dear Let me see your foot... Aw, it's bad... Shouldn't have shot yourself like that!

Thanks Yeah, fractions and the notation used for describing ratios can lead to confusion, I guess.

NB The user name Warrigal has nothing to do with Warrigal being female (i.e. there's no "gal" suffix implied); warrigal means "dingo".

I always assume there is more guys than girls on forums. Guess I'm wrong....?

What are you talking about? The numbers are still pretty spot on. Guys practically double the number of girls on here.

I'm another one of those female lurkers

I don't participate much in online forums in general, but I love this site for the insight in other peoples' study methods and the tons of great resources I've found on here.

There's lots of femmes lurking ... and the tendency of a lot of blokes to pay tribute to the middle stump in their stories has not gone un-regarded here, either (and yes, I've pinched a few of them despite not having the anatomy to qualify for maximum relevance: no complaints from me.)

djelibeybi: I remember quite a few of the kanji by riffing on Discworld themes ...

What about people who are BOTH women and men?

Well, the ratio reads better if we stick to whole numbers so guess you'd add +1:+1?
