Girls applying for econ PhD... an advantage?

Inspired by the discussion on Berkeley diversity form ... I would like to know what do you think about females applying for econ PhD? Is the fact of being a girl an advantage in admissions? For those in grad schools what is the male/female ratio in your department?

Any other comments on females in econ will be strongly appreciated.

(I happen to be a girl, but this question is only connected to curiosity, not that I would hope for differential treatment or something.)

... and yes I admit I picked option 5 in butler´s poll
