Audiophile demographics?


Why are there a disproportional number of male audiophiles?
Not sure if this is a silly question, but speaking for myself, I have never met a female audiophile.
I am sure they exist, but their scarcity begs the question as to why.
Is it merely that men have more of the "mine is bigger than yours" mentality, do men love gadgets and tools or is it something more sinister?

I would say she looked at the whisk as a tool to perform no matter how it subjectively looked. If only we would approach audio technology in an equally rational way. 
True, the whisk would apply more to  how men view hammers. Certain ones for certain applications. Using stereotypes diamonds and rubies make women feel more feminine and huge speakers and glowing tubes men more masculine. If only stereo equipment appreciated like jewelry.
