It is odd, though, because of course settlers going to Jamestown or Australia would be male because it was dangerous, unknown and they knew once they arrived it was going to be austere.But the people coming into the UK, these are not dormant soldiers (which is what the phrase "fighting age" implies)...and migration historically, was a MALE venture. Australia for eg. was settled that way, and then they brought women over...its a 'human' thing, that governments facilitate for their agendas.
In this case, I don't think migrants from Africa and ME are expecting it to be worse once they land in Paris or Madrid, so why wouldn't the women be going? For example, on the Southern US border, it does seem like there are women among the Central American and Venezuelan migrants toting along toddlers and babies. When you look at migrants in Europe, it seems to be all dudes in their 20s wearing counterfeit soccer jerseys
I don't have the stats in front of me, but it would be interesting to know if that's accurate or if every single photo I've seen is misleading lol
