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.
Otherwise I want a list for people who identify as celibate.
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.
