Gender and the Tumblr ratio

Really cool idea, but I think their is a bias here. More active users are highly more likely to see this, think it’s interesting and react to it. Cool random data collection, but would love to see the real numbers sys-wide.

After several conversations on the topic, I am really curious about this question:

What is the ratio following to followers by gender?

please reblog or email me your answer. You don’t have to disclose your actual number of followers, just a simply say your own gender and divide the total number of people you are following by total numbet of followers and the number of months you’ve been on tumblr. **** you do not have to look at whether your own followers are male or female**** My guess is women will have a ratio of 0.75 and men will be closer to 1.8. If I get enough of a sample I’ll post the results in a couple of days.

unless marco has this data and can just answer it easily??

I’ve been using tumblr for 10 months, I’m male and my ratio is: 0.847.

I’m female, been using tumblr since December, and my ratio is 0.87

I am female, using for 10 months, and my ratio is .168

didyouevernotice is male, has been using tumblr for 7 months and my ratio is .277
