Does that statistic (in so far as you remember) include males who died before growing old enough to implement a reproductive strategy?
I know that the mode for females was \2 in that same piece of data.
That’s pretty suggestive, but male infants and children are less robust that females, so it’s not conclusive (to me, anyway, because my background knowledge isn’t good enough for even order-of-magnitude estimates of the numbers involved).
