Default Dumb?? Aperture Question

Hi, This may seem like a dumb question, but as a teacher once told me in
elementary school,"the only dumb question is one you're afraid to ask".

So here it is: Is there a preferred aperture most of you use for portrait
photography? By portrait, I mean head and shoulders.

And does it differ from 35mm?

I recently attended a portrait seminar at Calumet, and the instructor used
f5.6 for all his shots. He was using a Canon 10D.

Thanks, Mike
