Yes! Looking at my follower analytics across my various social media accounts, and the tide has turned, it was pretty much 60-40 men to women about a year ago when I started specifically targeting women more, and it’s now about 35-65 men to women. Despite the huge number of Enbies who follow me, most of them have either ticked male or female when they signed up and haven’t changed as they seem to account for about 1% across all platforms.

Mastodon is the only site where I don’t do this at all and only interact with replies where I have anything to add
