I agree, mostly, but. . my understanding is that the surveys (ignoring the
faults in them) indicate LGBT may actually be over-represented in wikimedia
when compared to the distribution expected by real-world population
studies; in both men and women.  Im not saying this is bad, but that it
does not appear that there is a LGBT systemic gap that needs a strategic
approach to solving. I would love to hear of more research on this wrt
women, as it could help steer our gender gap solution finding efforts.

Hehe.  I can imagine that, like the gendergap list full of men(mea culpa;
ora pro me) , list being dominated by sexually active people trying to
'help' the celibate.
