I would also like to find out why you think there would be loss of rationality with different gender distribution in LessWrong?

I think his point is that attempting to change the demographics for the sake of changing them would result in a loss of rationality.

I don't think I necessarily agree, but that's not the same as assuming the current gender ratio is ideal for some reason.
