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?

Maybe, just maybe, women are too intelligent to buy into, what a person has to buy into, in order to be considered an 'audiophile'.

examples:  hearing wire and fuses.  Claiming LPs are superior to CDs, claiming every amp in creation has it's own distinct sound, directional arrows on interconnects   etc......
