    Gender and the Tumblr ratio

    mascarah:

    biteofpythias:

    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??

    F, ratio = .30 (people I follow, to people who follow me), tumblr time= 7 months. You’re so smart, Mike.

    F, ratio is 2.4 (people I follow vs people who follow me). Time = 3.5 months.
