The Baen sample had a larger fraction of female writers than the Tor sample: 1:2.5 as compared to 1:3.7. Female characters to male at Baen ran 1:1.7, and at Tor 1:2.3.

It's interesting that you're using isfdb for this as we don't actually record the gender of authors (or editors, reviewers or artists). It's been suggested that we do so, and in fact one of our newer editors, Darrah Chavey, claims a specialty in SF by women authors.
