Having lived in both a "female only" dorm (University of Florida) and a "co-ed dorm" (San Jose State) where guys and girls live right next to each other in separate rooms-- I have to say I much prefered the female only dorms.
I found that in the all female dorms, the girls "bonded" together much better. It was a much more relaxed atmousphere, and it was kind of a dorm sorority. You knew there were no males allowed after a certain time, so you could walk the halls, go to the kitchen or showers wearing your bunny slippers and your night shirt.
In the co-ed dorms, the girls were putting on their makeup just to go to the bathroom! It was also a drag when your roomie had an overnight guest in the co-ed dorms.
By no means am I a prude... I crew on tall ships for a hobby, and on most ships, the men and women crew all sleep in one room. Infact, you may be on the middle bunk and have a man in the bunk above you and below you. In that case though, you're so darned tired from working hard all day (or night) that all you care about is hitting the rack and getting some sleep!
