While Second Life certainly has a larger female population (50%) than most virtual worlds -- usually, in the 35-55 age range (average being 33), which is quite uncommon on other platforms -- and on average they log in to Second Life more than males, don't confuse "gender" with "looks"!

Compared with other virtual worlds Second Life has the biggest female population (approx. 50%). Most of the women that log on Second Life are in the 35-55 age range. They also log into Second Life more frequently than males.

However, do NOT confuse the population gender with avatar "looks", that is: Anyone can play any gender at any moment by modifying his/her appearance (In the Appearance window, look in the Shape / Body section. You can easily change your gender by selecting either Male or Female, located under the side buttons.)

Long story short: yes, there are a substantial amount of female players around; but be advised that you can easily switch genders at any moment!

That said and done, you have been warned :)
