I got taken to school on this one before when I first joined here. LOL.

I was in the same school of thought as you, but people smarter than me straightened things out!

What it boils down to is that males aren't in high demand, because of the fact that they can fertilize multiple females. Since one male can fertilize many females you don't need as many of them for breeding. If you needed one male to fertilize one female the value would be closer to equal.
