Which tastes better, Males or Females? My Grandfather maintains females, I think males. Which do you all like?

Do the females ever taste more sour or tangy to anyone else? I'll eat them, don't get me wrong, but I'll take a male every time...

id prefer males because you get a little more meat for your work, but if i made someone else pick em, ill take females for flavor. they have more fat, makes a better crabcake, and almost are always a better value pound for pound

Males, they got large claws and chunk meat. Besides if you eat females you will eventually diminish the population. I saw people taking females and figured that if a female can produce 1 million eggs and only 100 or so survive you are greatly depleting (killing) the population. Think before you take em guys!!

Fred:
You're right but considering most males of all species breed as many females as possible ( I know I sure as heck tried ) I think it's wise that they are let go.
