Any user blatantly claiming to be female
That notion is what is the very basis for sexism in the Bitcoin community, at least the bitcointalk.org community. Disagree? Send me a PM.
If you start having more confidence in somebody because of their gender you should consider the problem being in you, not in others! So stop shaming women/girls into hiding their gender. It is not acceptable.

If you give free coins....anyone beyond boundary of gender will use it.

So true.
not a lot of Girls use Bitcoin simply because they probably find it hard to learn , and beside girls don't really like technology and those stuff , at least not more then the boys .
What do you think about this claim here http://www.meetup.com/Women-in-Bitcoin/events/219380610/ that

Thought you might be interested to see that Stellar users are 34% women (compared with about 5% of bitcoiners)
says somebody called Eva G.
Though one may wonder where the source for that is, and also that Bitcoin still has the largest community, so comparing an Altcoin to Bitcoin shouldn't that community also be comparable to Bitcoin in community size as well?

Regardless of the above claim being true or false, do you know of any other Altcoin where there is a closer to 50% 50% ratio of men and women being part of the community?
