[Foundation-l] Do we even know if there is a Gender Gap

[James Heilman]

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_and_notes
<http://ref>might it just be that female editors prefer to keep there gender
unknown which seems like an equally valid explanation of the results.
