I would say you are probably correct in your assumption that most of us are male, but there are some ladies out there.

Perhaps a promotional gimmick like "Naked Thursdays" would encourage more female membership.

TELL ME WHY??????? I really don't get it....why is programming done mostly by men????? I noticed this at school - my class in programming had 2 girls out of about 25. ***?? There is quite obviously no restriction in terms of physical demand for women....and despite some machisimos attitudes out there, women are just as smart as men....so why is that guys like programming more than gals??? Is it cause us guys like to tinker with things and make them work? (aka mechanics, electronics, etc.) WHAT IS THE DEAL????

Men are better at task-intensive job where you need to concentrate more. Women are better at multitasking in the general sense.
Thus, the distinction. A woman would make a better manager, a guy would make a good coder.

Women are probably more easily confused by all the loud noises and shiny things.

(I agree though, I wonder why there arent that many female managers in the computer world)

[layman-xcoder terms]
Men are better at concentrating on doing something. Like concentrating on programming. We think in a single thread.
Women can do multithreading. Several thought processes simultaneously.
