though it is true that male and females learn differently early in their lives, and more division of learning should be made (one reason I was thankfully home schooled for a large part of my early years)

Was the same here.

In infant school we had no male teachers. However the headteacher was male.
In junior school we had a couple of males but mostly female. Again, headteacher was male though.
Seniors was dominated by male teachers. We had different teachers for each lesson, overall I would say there were maybe 30/40 teachers in the school, and I only remember 5 women.
Never went to college so can't comment on that

Maybe women are just more likely to want to work with younger kids or something? :S
