For overall members, I'd wager it's probably in the
90-95% Male
10-5% Female range...

Looking at that ratio, I notice not many women:

1) care a great deal about their computers/electronics;
and/or
2) don't care to discuss them with others across the Internet.

I think the ratio I noted above would probably be accurate for the most typical "computer/electronics" forums across the Net.

P.S. You can add xfiftyfour to that list of females mentioned earlier, although I thought "she" was a "he" for over a year here on MR.
 
Well, I asked him before and he doesn't know where it is. I reckon it was my dodgy next door neighbour. She's always taking my stuff. She would have had to tug pretty hard though, 'cause my pole was in pretty deep.
 
well since this place is essentially a geekfest™ and there are more guy geeks, they're going to probably be a lot more guys here.

*checks* yeah i'm a guy. :D
 
I was just thinking about the term geek and thought of this very guy geek moment I had last firday...

*screen fades and goes to flashback mode*

It was the last period on friday afternoon and, well, what do school guys do on last period on a friday...Nothing of course, except for guys saying how drunk they're goanna get and how many girls they're going to impregnate and how stoned thy're goanna be. As for me, I was thinking how many levels I'de grow in Diablo 2 when I got home. Sure as hell I played D2 for about 5 hours straight and levelled substantially, maybe I'm not geeky enough for World of Warcraft yet:D

Sounds like you scored just as much as they did!

Just... in a different way... ;)
 
Based on the polls there not many females on here. On the other hand, of the 92836 total members and the about 230 that have taken the poll, it seems thats theres just not a hole lot of active members in general.
 
This really should of been an open poll so you can see the names of who is who.
