There is no male Wikipedian category. JUst like there aren't "men's
history" classes because history has been written about and by men for the
majority of time ;) It's that same type of thing.
It might partially the same thing, but not entirely. There's another reason
why Category:Male Wikipedians doesn't exist: WP:MYSPACE.
If the WP:MYSPACErs' are vigilant enough, Category:Female Wikipedia is
going to get deleted eventually.

I'd suggest having a different category for that.
(although I am not sure
it is utile in the first place).
To avoid the mix up of back end admin and academic content.

Oh, sorry, I meant to say the Wikipedia articles about people who are
Wikipedians :)
Both of them have Wikipedia articles and also state on their Wikipedian
user pages that they are who they are.

Umm, please don't do that. Users themselves should be the sole deciders
of what categories they wish to link to. For example, I hope nobody puts
that category on my userpage, and if they do it will be removed as soon as
I can log in.
Some people deliberately choose not to categorize themselves.

Don't forget, you can also add the category to any women you might know
who have Wikipedia articles and are Wikipedians.
Such as Sue or Valerie!
