We have heard a great deal lately about a "gender gap". Is there really a gender gap? With 93% of editor not marking there gender known per http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Wikipedia_Signpost/2011-02-14/News_an... http://refmight it just be that female editors prefer to keep there gender unknown which seems like an equally valid explanation of the results.

There was a study, but based on long experience with numerous editors I know that it is real. Men and women act somewhat different online.
