This map shows the ratio of men to women in each of the fifty states, based on 2010 U.S. Census data. States in blue have more men than women, and states in red have more women than men. The darker the colors, the greater the disparity. We first saw Redditor Funkdified make this map, and wanted to recreate his work.

U.S. Census/ Business Insider

Over the entire United States, there are about 97 men for every 100 women, and in all but ten states, women outnumber men. Alaska is by far the manliest state, with almost 109 men for every 100 women. Washington D.C. is home to only about 90 men for every 100 women.
