I've met very few attractive men at university. The male psychology students in Sweden must be among the least stylish people int he world. Besides, most of them were overweight. (The women too, for some reason.) Now, all the guest and exchange researchers I meet at work, that's another thing :D ;)

Hmmm, I think my course is about 50/50 split gender-wise, which is cool. Though I did a course on gender history last year which had about 20 women and 3 guys... I think they felt a bit outnumbered :D
Who, me?!?

Well I suppose I was her subject... but she flunked and ended up causing some serious restructuring to the subject material. ;)

CE: Well I'm reasonably slim and I'm a psych student :D 67kgs if anyone's interested ;) And don't ask me what that is in any other measurement, i only know what it is in kilograms! :D

20/3 ration - Sounds nice :D :D

Well not actually - I've always found that 50/50 to 60/40 (female/male) is better.
Otherwise there will either be to much guy-talk or to much girl-scheming :D

50/50 will do me since that's usually one to one :p And that's fine with me :p

@Georgi: I always prefer a approx. 50/50 gender distribution. Both my psych and my med courses were like that, but as always, the "higher" in the academic hierarchy you go, the more male dominated it becomes. When I started working at the lab where I'm now, only one other researcher was female, the other 30 were male. The last 1-2 years it's been better, but my field is still extremely male dominated. :(

@Veh: 67 kgs? That's no proof of being slim, you could be 1.62 cm tall ;)

@Xan: I agree with the guy/girl-talk stuff, and both are equally boring since they follow predictable stereotype patterns. Zzz...
