Thanks for introducing us @ValeriaA_!
It's nice to meet you @AnitaAO! I'm Jesica, and like Valeria said I'm from Argentina as well. We are also both from Buenos Aires.
I think I started contributing in December 2016 but I'm not sure 😬
As the time went by I started contributing more and more and eventually realized how much Local Guides can help people and improve Google Maps, I love helping so it became a big part of my life pretty fast ☺
I'm tagging @Justine2807, another female active member of this community.
EDIT: Since she was already tagged, I will tag @MiaMaria, yet another active female member, who loves falafels ☺
Please mention me with @Jesi on your reply, so I get notified

If you want my point of view @AnitaAO, I can tell you that the point is not related to the number.
I am observing this community from a privilegiate place, as I was invited for moderating this community one year ago.
In my opinion we don't have to confuse number of members with number of contribution. Male members contribute more than females in here, but the average of male contribution is very low, if we use quality as parameters. A lot of self celebrating post, with low content but a lot of pats on the shoulder.
Female members produce less post, but the quality level is much higher.
Personally, if I have to make a choice between quantity Vs quality, I personally choose the second. I do strongly believe that we can produce more quality. So kudos to your post
