US men are the minority online. Currently, 96 million males are Internet users, compared with 103 million females. eMarketer estimates that the number of men online will reach 106 million in 2013—but remain the minority.
The Men Online report analyzes the demographics and behavior of this large, but often overlooked, segment of Internet users.
Gender, even more than race or ethnicity, is a distinguishing factor of Internet use, informing online behavior and attitudes.
Online, men visit more sites and stay longer than females. They are search engine users and participate in all forms of social media, particularly videos. In addition, they are more mobile—avid users of laptops, wireless broadband connections and mobile phones.
For men, online shopping behavior is more goal-oriented, much like offline trips to a store. But they are not as bothered by sites cluttered with ads and do not abandon them as quickly as women do.

How many men are online?
How does men’s Internet use differ from women’s?
Which generation of men has the highest Internet penetration?
How do men use mobile phones?
And many others…
