Is Swim Magazine sexist?

Based on the covers of the official USMS magazine, "Swim," you'd think that swimming is a woman's sport. It seems like the cover always features women swimmers. Is this because covers with male swimmers don't sell magazines? Don't men deserve equal time in representing our sport?

    If you look at magazines in general, it is obvious that they they have many more (attractive) women in general on covers. If you look at our sport specifically, it is obvious that we have the most attractive women in the world in our sport. Therefore, the magazine merely typifies our society in general.
