Ah -- there is no federal statute banning discrimination on the basis of sexual orientation in either education or employment. There are state and local laws in some places. But where those laws don't exist, it's perfectly legal for a school to expel a student or for a boss to fire an employee for being gay.
The Title IX violation doesn't depend on women leaving the school. That's just an extreme example of how a discriminatory environment can interfere with access to education. If men get to walk around feeling safe and women don't, and the school doesn't make any effort to change that, that's potentially a Title IX violation, too. But there has to be pretty powerful evidence before any federal agency will sanction a school. Just a pattern of women enrolling and leaving wouldn't do it.
