All technical majors are biased towards males. High level mathematics, physics, chemistry, economics, engineering is all male dominated. In all except Econ, the low levels are dominated by males as well.</p>
<p>I think that people with high level numeracy are more likely to be conservative (fiscally, especially) than those with high level literacy found in softer majors/careers. I don’t believe it tracks sex. For example, I would tend to believe that women who happen to be in a “numerical field” would display more conservatism when compared to other professions at the same income level and education.</p>
