Understanding the male to female ratio here at Astral Pulse?

[PlasmaAstralProjection]

OK so in the status section it says "Male to Female Ratio:   2.8:1" So I am assuming that it means there is 8 parts male to one part female in the ratio. But what does the 2 mean? And did I interpret that correctly? Thanks.

2.8

It's 2.8 guys for every one lady.

Nicely put Xanth, guys are just guys, the gals are ladies.
Gets my vote, show respect and hopefull the ratio will balance.
