There have been many good points made on this topic and I personally believe that it all comes down to supply and demand. People have had a chance to move up more quickly on the women's side because the supply hasn't kept up with demand. That is one reason I chose to go the women's route. I started officiating later in life and did not have time to wait 10 years before getting picked up to do games on the men's side. There are many more people who want to work on the men's side, hence the demand for new officials is much less that the available supply. One's choice on which route to pursue has a lot to do with both patience AND preference.
