The ultimate goal for OSM should be a project which everyone feels welcome to be a part of, and which does not have a noticeable bias towards either gender or any given race. Also, please realize just because women are welcome to participate in OSM, does not necessarily mean that some women will *feel* they are welcome.
But exactly how is the project unwelcoming? How could the "Edit" button be welcoming to men and not women?
I didn't even know the map had strip-clubs or childcare in it - and I've been contributing for 10-years, so this clearly isn't an explanation for the gender percentages we have.
A simpler explanation would be that women are simply interested in other past-times. And what's wrong with that?
