I've tried breeding ferroseed and charmander with ditto and every time I hatch the offspring I get a MALE. This is getting irritating and I started to wonder whether the breeding mechanics with ditto changed. Did they?

Breeding Mechanics did change, but the offspring's gender depends on the Pokemon itself. Ferroseed/ Ferrothorn have a 50% chance to be either Male or Female, but Charmander/ Charmeleon/ Charizard has a 87.5% of being Male and a 12.5% to be Female. Here are all the changes in breeding.

In fact I found ferroseed so tedious I just decided that catching a female was easier. I can't believe that charmander's is gonna be so much harder... oh and by the way it's charmander not chimchar (though the gender ratio is the same).
Oh, my bad xD

No, the breeding mechanics haven't changed with Ditto.
If you are breeding for Charmander, it has a 87.5% Male/12.5% Female gender ratio, so you will get more Males than Females.
