I got this from a website:
"
In 2003 the male:female ratio for live birth registered remained unchanged for the previous year at 51: 49. In 2003 there were 24,235 males and 23,347 females while for 2002 there were 24,565 males and 23,539 females. (Table 3b)
In respect of live birth occurrences, in 2003 the male:female ratio was the same at 51:49 and although the absolute values decreased marginally over those for 2002 the ratio remained constant. In 2003 there were 22,134 males and 21,272 females compared with 22,702 males and 21,629 females in 2002. (Table 3c)
Of note, also, is the occurrence of one live birth for which the information for the sex could not be obtained.
Portland deviated the most from the 51:49 male to female ratio for both live birth registrations and occurrences in 2003. The ratio for occurrences was 54:46 while that for registrations was 55:45. In 2002, although Portland maintained the greatest deviation from the ratio of 51:49, the ratio experienced for both registrations and occurrences converged at 53:47
The male to female ratios for registrations and occurrences by parish of residence of mother generally show the same trend by parish as observed for the ratios by parish of occurrence and registration.

Do you mean men to women in the world, as in population ratios or men to women who are worldly?
I am a woman of the world, well traveled, fairly well read and I participate in many aspects of life. I believe that there are more worldly men than women due to sexism and the financial limitations many women have to deal with in this "man's world".
But, I don't think that's the answer you want. Learn how to phrase your questions so that you might get the answers you seek more easily.
Sorry. I'm just a little bitter about the ignorance displayed on this website. Words matter. Learn how to use them and you might find life easier and your questions answered faster.

You'll have to do a little research to discover the current ratio, but it will be close to 50:50.

According to
http://www.census.gov/ipc/www/world.html
About 1.01 men to 1 women overall, but for people over 45 years old, there are more women than men.

You'll have to do some math, but you should be able to figure it out from here: http://unstats.un.org/unsd/demographic/products/indwm/ww2005/tab1a.htm
