So I started out with six girl dwarfs and one guy dwarf. Guess who the game made the expedition leader? The guy! Even though he's just a miner, and I gave one of the girl dwarfs a couple points in leadership.

Sexist!

Obviously I'm kidding. 

I am a little concerned about my forts future, unless I get a bunch of dude migrants, or dwarfs are into polygamy!

Mod them so females can marry each other and have children.

That was something I was mildly curious of... what happens if you mod a caste to have both [MALE] and [FEMALE]?

Now that I'm thinking of it, I've only ever had one male expedition leader.  As far as the leadership skill goes, I'm pretty sure that's a military skill.  I'm not sure which one does it because I've only ever given all of them to one dwarf, but organizer, appraiser and record keeper will make a dwarf expedition leader.  edit: Greatest social skills, thank you sir.

Greatest social skills gets elected as mayor and presumably that's the basis for expedition leader too. Make sure some chick is always idle and socializing and you'll get them to be mayor once your fort is that size fo sho.

What I always do is look for a dwarf with the best 'honesty' traits in his character description. Then, I put as many points into the Liar skill as I can. Liar skill will make them the expedition leader, and also will give them skill in something they would never learn on their own, as they are honest.

[BodyGripper]

You should make him a pimp-suit.  Mod in feathered hats.

I want dwarven hermaphrodites!

And I've definitely had female expedition leaders.  Also if you chose a different dwarf to be your expedition leader than the game assigns, you can switch them

As for weird gender distributions, my latest fort has the exact opposite problem.  They forgot to take any women with them.

I know how this will end up.

Those guys were going on a road trip when there wagon broke down. So they had to start building a fortress.

[Haus Party]

What's the dwarven word for "sausage fest?"

[Vercingetorix]

I know how this will end up.

So that's why they brought all that tallow...
