Female to male Ratio?
Washcloth:
When i was playing dwarf fortress on my PC i noticed a LOT of female dwarves in my fort
I thought that this was just a rarity due to my world gen or something
Well, my Pc Exploaded a few days ago, so i downloaded DF on a laptop i had and made another world (of corse)
In short, still way more female dwarves to male
seems like the ratio is 1:3 being male..any one else notice this?

Actually, yeah I have noticed that I usually have more females than males. The primary reason I don't like that is because it kinda ruins the naming for me. I like to name them after my friends and stuff, but instead I have to name them my girlfriend and her friends names. lol, ah well...
Washcloth:
Yeah, i have the same issue, I can see why this is though, probably to ensure that the dwarves can mate and not inter breed.
Just like with the dogs, if you have one male and 17 females, theres a better chance of survival than 17 males and one female i guess....although i dont think dwarves can have multiple partners however...
so yeah
Still dosent make sense ::)
Washcloth:
Also it seems that most of the children born on site are boys
Oh the multiple laws of nature of dwarf fortress
you make no sense at all

Females use babies as shields, and therefore survive more battles.
