27% of women (n=109) and 32% of men (n=885) have read hitchhikers guide in this corner of twitter. Or in other words, 0.84 women have read it for every man. What would be an equivalent good test book by a female author for this crowd? Ursula Le Guin? J. K. Rowling?https://twitter.com/vgr/status/1131017197424300033 …

I think the right converse question is men reading sci-fi by women authors, since original motive was remark by woman friend that hhg seemed like a “guy thing”

Surely the more INTERESTING case is "covert" female authors like James Tiptree Jr?
