Well, my wife is female and one of the founders of the Lojban effort. Alex
Miles-Lasseter is also on the LLG board, and will also be there, but is
still learning the language. We often have at least one other female
Lojbanist around, but overall you are correct that the Lojban community is
largely male - primarily I think because much of our recruiting has been by
word-of mouth among programmer-types, who also are most commonly male.
