... 9% other? What we can conclude from that is that either people misunderstood the question, or deliberately derailed the poll or the far more likely scenario of BG:EE somehow speaking to the genderless and hermafrodites.

It amused me to see there are 9% genderless and hermafrodites and 0% girls.
I actually find it kind of sad that there are no women playing so far. @VittordeVitto What is "ROLF"? Do you mean "Rolling On Floor Laughing" in which case it should be ROFL?
Now I know there are some girls on this forum, I can think of two off of the top of my head. One of them has been away for a while, and the others might not see is poll...

I'm sure there are quite a few women on here. They're probably afraid to come forward in case some guys, thinking they're being ironic, start pestering them with things like 'Girl Geek! Are you hawt? Will you post a picture of yourself? Go out with me?' And other such witty banter.

This happened to me in World of WarCraft several times. My sister and I usually play the opposite gender, and people couldn't usually tell we were, you know, the gender opposite our avatars, unless we outright stated it. It made for some pretty funny conversations!
I'd just like to point out that (although I like this poll) it is a poll of people who use this forum, not people who play BGEE, as such the results are already filtered.
As a comparison - If you look at the ratings on IMDB, the number of women rating films is a fraction of the number of men, even on "chick flicks" and I feel fairly secure in saying that the gender balance is pretty even when it comes to watching films. I guess just not when it comes to ranting about them online.
I'm sure this isn't insightful, I just find it fascinating - so can't help but point it out at every available opportunity.
In a way it is insightful. I never paid attention to the gender balance on IMDB reviews. With chick flicks, my guess is that it is mostly rants from guys who had to watch it because their girlfriends wanted it, and to vent somewhere.

LOL
I'm a guy either way, but it's probably worth clarifying.
I think everyone who player a lot og BG:EE have player both genders anyway.. so.. no point in asking that.
ROLF

Cheers!!
I probably play females more often than males, though.
