You can also compare this to women's rush in a large school in the North (Penn State) vs a large school in the south (U of Alabama). The pledge classes in the north are smaller than the ones in the south, but you'd have to be on crack to suggest that PSU's rush is harder than Bama's. The fact of the matter is, it is a regional thing - people in the north prefer more choices and smaller groups. This bears out time and time again.
I think it's much the same way for fraternities vs sororities. Men prefer more choices. At pretty much every school, as everyone has said, there are more fraternities than sororities (at some places it's almost 3 to 1). Just look at the amount of NIC members vs NPC members on a national basis!
If Greek membership at your school is skewed to the point that there are far more female MEMBERS in the system than male MEMBERS, or vice versa, then yes, there is something wrong that needs to be remedied.
