I found this:. . . .
. . .And while women still read more literature than men, that percentage fell to 55.1% in 2002 from 63% in 1982. The study also found that only 37.6% of men read literature in 2002, down from 49.1% in 1982. The percentage of white Americans that read literature in 2002 was 51.4% in 2002, down from 59.8% in 1982, while 37.1% of African-Americans and 26.5% of Hispanics read literature in 2002. In 1982, those numbers were at 42.3% for African-Americans and 36.4% for Hispanics.

Um, in what country? Globally? Remember that worldwide, there are 880 million illiterate people, many of them women (because of unequal access to education in many countries). So this question cannot really be answered until some more information is provided.

I think it is probably pretty low. I personally love reading but most people nowadays have the attitude that reading is only for students. Not many people in general read much anymore.
