Not surprising. Any girl would be saying "Why do I need a second Facebook?"

  All the women I socialize with regularly are on Google+, and not because I told them about it. It's a limited beta, anyway. People will start joining when their Gmail tells them to.

  You may be joking (I can't tell), but it's true that early adopters skew sharply male. Some estimates on various projects put the male/female ratio at 10:1 or even higher. If Google gets better than 30% female in this early beta period, I will be very impressed with their making-tech-attractive-to-women skillz.

      Yishan Wong pointed out that the backbone of a mainstream social network is primarily moms and popular attractive females [1]. And I completely agree that testing for them is more important than nerds who worry about the privacy settings of their gender. Besides we as a demographic are not very good for personalized targeting. How often do you guys click ads?
