Chip Circuit 1,842 July 26, 2015 Share July 26, 2015 I would say so. Girls tend to have a more fluid and creative mindset while guys have a more linear mindset. Not saying either gender sticks to these mindsets just saying it's more so a common occurrence. Which is why you tend to see more men in careers that involve science or medicine, things that are more so a linear mindset. While you tend to see more women in careers that require a flexible and creative mind. Again not trying to sound sexist just saying 7 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Treelestia 36 July 26, 2015 Share July 26, 2015 Several of the "girls" you're seeing are likely to actually be male on their side of the screen. You shouldn't assume everyone on the Internet is honest about who (or what) they are. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DND 2,354 July 26, 2015 Share July 26, 2015 There are a lot of both. deviantART and tumblr do have a fair share of fangirls though, or females in general. Tons of guy artists do professional work out there however. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DashieOfRainbows 122 July 26, 2015 Share July 26, 2015 I'm not sure If girls draw more than boys, but I'm a guy and I LOVE to draw 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jaxsie (Inactive) 1,343 July 26, 2015 Share July 26, 2015 (edited) I agree with Chip. People in our society don't want to talk about it or dismiss it all together, but male and female minds do function differently. Males tend to think more linearly; which is, generally, why they are good at mathematics and science. While female minds are more abstract and why we tend to be good at language and art. I'm writing in generalities here, of course; this doesn't go for everyone. But this is why you see more female artists than males ones.

Seeing black and white and straight-forward isn't going to make you all that prone to discovering things, and working amongst other scientists, which is well, key. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Seeing black and white and straight-forward isn't going to make you all that prone to discovering things, and working amongst other scientists, which is well, key. well more so careers in general practice science, not so much theoretical science. Theoretical is far from linear, that's where you come up with new concepts and challenge what we think we know today. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Theoretical is far from linear, that's where you come up with new concepts and challenge what we think we know today. I guess, general practices with understanding key concepts and problem-solving techniques is pretty linear, but if you were to venture into the profession, really going into it, It's all about teamwork really. You won't get that far if you can't keep your mind open a bit, being flexible with other's input even though you may just be the mathematician/general calculator for gravitational data or some sort in whatever occupational project you got a career in. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Thuja 3,658 July 26, 2015 Share July 26, 2015 (edited) I don't know, I think there are just as many guys that can draw as girls can. Edited July 26, 2015 by Thuja 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Notomi 66 July 26, 2015 Share July 26, 2015 (edited) my siblings that are girls draw, and my siblings that are boys don't. I dunno, it's possible, but I don't know. xD Edited July 26, 2015 by Notomi 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Banul 3,831 July 26, 2015 Share July 26, 2015 A single website isn't really a strong sample size. It could just be that Deviantart has a higher female userbase then male. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
javaleen 144 July 26, 2015 Share July 26, 2015 I've seen plenty on both sides... and most teaching hardcore artists i know are male, in fact. Not to mention famous artist of the history~ So I really don't think this is a gender thing :v 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest July 26, 2015 Share July 26, 2015 Studies have shown the men are more likely to pursue careers in sciences and labor while women are more likely to take careers in care and creativity. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lost 1,409 July 28, 2015 Share July 28, 2015 I draw, well i did for a while, ive not drawn anything for a while now... I'll see if i can dig out the last thing i drew and post it below. Most of the people i know in real life that draw are male Last thing i drew was a sketch of Sombra: 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest July 28, 2015 Share July 28, 2015 I'd say so. I think boys tend to be more logical and robotic and girls tend to be more emotional and creative, thus are more prone to artistic endeavours. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BOW2URWAIFU. 60 July 28, 2015 Share July 28, 2015 There are plenty of boy artists. (Me included) maybe they are too scared to show their faces online xD 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Midnight Solace 5,129 January 12, 2019 Share January 12, 2019 Really? I'm a male, and I draw... Stuff. I'm pretty sure there are many male artists out there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lucky Bolt 34,914 January 12, 2019 Share January 12, 2019 (edited) I'd say guys can draw just as much as girls. And just as well. Edited January 12, 2019 by Lucky Bolt 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dreambiscuit 8,024 January 13, 2019 Share January 13, 2019 (edited) I'm sure guys draw just as much as girls. Maybe girls post their stuff more often but I see no reason to assume there's anything more to it than that. I know a lot of male artists who are very prolific.
