It says excluding Vatican City, which makes sense, but it just makes me want to know how bad the ratio is for there.

Well if you have the ratio of priests to children…

Seeing a lot of post-soviet states on here, I’m guessing the life-expectancy drop following the USSR’s collapse affected men more than women.

The uneven ratios in those top three are due to massive populations of second class immigrant laborers, often slave laborers.

Yes, that was my first thought as I know Qatar has a huge population of immigrant workers from Bangladesh and other countries, all of which are male.

They came from south asia where that amount of people isn’t even a drop in the bucket.

Aaahh thank you. I was scratching my head over that one.

And I guess it makes sense that Qatar was top because they recently had to build a whole bunch of stadiums and infrastructure to a tight deadline. But that’s all cool because Messi got a medal so yay.

There are still imbalance issues in massive countries like China and India, and the last thing I want is a bunch of frustrated men in a capitalist dystopia (= fascism pretty much). The number I see from a quick search is around 70 million more men than women in India and China (https://www.washingtonpost.com/graphics/2018/world/too-many-men/). They need to figure this shit out quickly. And it can’t just be let women from other countries immigrate because then the countries that they left will also have an imbalance. I’m not sure how to deal with this issue.

They could just send their excess men to the disputed border where they can just hit each other with sticks.

That is the traditional solution, the alternative being insurrection. Sitting governments, for obvious reasons, generally choose your option.
