In 2013 the Dutch Wikimedia chapter hired an external party to conduct a survey and the results (translated to English) are here:
The study was split into two parts; one on the contributors and one on the "users", aka readers. Users were 50/50 male female (page 51), contributors were 88% male, 6% female, and 6% would not say (page 26)
