Since the vast majority of users apparently don't specify, that data
wouldn't be very useful. It's only useful if can justify the
assumption that people that specify have the same gender ratio as the
general population (which could easily not be true - for example,
women may choose not to specify because they don't want to be singled
out for "special" treatment [insert obligatory xkcd reference here -
I'm at work so I won't go hunting for it, but you know the one I mean]
so the ratio for people that do specify would overestimate the number
of men).

Could we get the proportion of users with more than 10 edits that
specify? It's possible that is significantly higher than for all
users, in which case we could get some useful numbers for those users.
