Gender and the Tumblr ratio

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 simple male/female/trans and the ratio of following over followers and the number of months you’ve been on tumblr. 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??

35% of the people that follow me are male.

43.29% of the people that follow me are male. (Yes, used a calculator.)

 83% of my followers are male.

16% of my followers are male
