It’s probabilities. So they essentially talk about a range of decimal comma positions, from 0.01 to 100.0 or 1% to 10000%
They could have used plain counts as well though. (Not sure about the visual gradient though, as I suppose these things are impacted by Zipfs law, etc.)
It means log(males/females). Base 10 I suppose (not relevant to the visual)
I am really dying to know what author of the graphic thought is advantage of such scale instead of -100 to 100…

I think its actually gender color coded. The “male” side leans blue-ish, with the “female” side leaning towards pink.
Using controversial forced gender roles colors as a axis is certainly a choice.
The whole study (behavior+gender correlation) is biased. I didn’t see the colors on the other screen anyway.
For the case you had issues with understanding the log thing:
And my partial color blindness gets in my way again…
