"Disproportionately represented" != "usually", but if you interpret "something wrong" more broadly, e.g. not having several children by age 30, that does seem right (at least in the present-day western world -- I have no idea whether that was also the case in Nietzsche's time, and I've heard it wasn't the case in e.g. the German Democratic Republic).
OTOH by such a broad definition there also is usually something wrong with the sexuality of men with scholarly inclinations, too.
Yes, and I'm pretty sure I've heard Nietzsche quotes to that effect as well.
