The X-axis is the ratio of men to women in a national population. The lower the number, the greater the female percentage.

The Y-axis is "sociosexuality"--or the prevalence of norms regarding casual sex. The higher the number, the less negative a population feels towards intercourse without commitment.



Conclusion: vacation in the Baltic region.

Interesting that there is social pattern evidenced here: higher percentage of women correlates with promiscuity. More competion, I guess.

I wonder what the causes of such differences in sex ratio are, especially in countries with more men. War was the only reason I ever heard to explain more women in the population and the countries on the left have been pretty battle-free...

There were the Baltic Wars of Liberation around WWI. Not sure of the details, but thousands died. Maybe this was a high percentage of the populations of these small nations back then.

Not a lot of WWI survivors surviving these days. Assuming current data, you'd be talking 100+ year olds fighting, or at best 90 year olds, if you made the assumption babies were impacted (if say the russkies killed off male kids).
