Why more men?

Why are there more men than woman in masters swimming? Everyone says that women's events always end before the men's events (and thus we have to keep that odd/even rule for pools at nationals). Is this still true? The last meet I attended there were 62 heats of women and 65 of men.

    I once read htat women begin swimming earlier intheir lives. They then stop swimming ealier also. I've never noticed that their are more men than women swimming in clubs. Frequently though it does seem to me that there are more women who just swim laps.
