I've had plenty of good and bad coworkers of both genders, so I don't care much about the ratio as long as everyone does roughly their fair share of the workload.
As far as bonus points go, other guys are generally more into the same hobbies as me, so there's more "bro talk" about that stuff. The girls seem to provide a wider range of topics and I learn about things I wouldn't with just other guys. I have pretty diverse interests though, so having a mix of good guys and girls to talk with is the best scenario for me.
About the only perk to working with majority males is then I'm not always the first one the boss asks to lug around heavy crap.
I seem to feel for some of the girls in all girl teams though. They can be way harsher to each other than I've seen all male teams work. I would not be able to continue in some of the situations I've seen them put each other through...
