Rachel learned hers from Girl Scouts, so I don't think it's a gender thing as much as a scouting thing. I got chewed out by the Janitor in grade school once for not knowing how to fold a flag properly - my family never flew one and I am far from scouting material - which pissed me off then and still does now. It's the sort of thing they should cover in civics classes.
Anyway, when we actually got a flag as a housewarming gift I went out of my way to learn the rules. So I learned from a computer - other than the bits I got from an Encyclopedia Brown mystery.
