I got exactly the same ratios. Glad to know we're both equally-girly men, I was worried I wasn't keeping up.

Damn, I guess that's what happens when you visit babycenter.com!
A little scary, but also genius as to how they figure out your history.

Even more interesting though, is that of the top 100 sites, only 14 are designated male and 49 of them are designated female.
The only ones that were clearly male (not slightly) were digg.com, metacafe.com, and... youporn.com

Also interesting, I just noticed that they listed johnmccain.com, but not barackobama.com even though both are in the quantcast list.
barackobama.com: 2.7M people, 58% female
johnmccain.com: 1.4M people, 56% male
