Trying to find miss and mister of the last month with highest rating

Hello,

at my website users can rate each other:

# select id, nice, last_rated from pref_rep where nice=true
order by last_rated desc limit 7;
id | nice | last_rated
------------------------+------+----------------------------
OK152565298368 | t | 2011-07-07 14:26:38.325716
OK452217781481 | t | 2011-07-07 14:26:10.831353
OK524802920494 | t | 2011-07-07 14:25:28.961652
OK348972427664 | t | 2011-07-07 14:25:17.214928

OK335285460379 | t | 2011-07-07 14:24:39.062652
OK353639875983 | t | 2011-07-07 14:23:33.811986

And I know their gender:

# select id, female from pref_users limit 7;
id | female
----------------+--------
OK351636836012 | f
OK366097485338 | f
OK251293359874 | t
OK7848446207 | f
OK335478250992 | t
OK355400714550 | f
OK146955222542 | t

I'm trying to construct 2 queries -
one to find the female user with
highest count of ratings for the last month
(not just for the last 30 days -
and this condition is already killing me)
and the same for non-female users.

Any help please? SQL is so hard sometimes.
