Yes, although there are more Wiccan women than Wiccan men according to most polls, men are just as welcome to join most traditions. There are a few traditions that accept only women or only men, but for the most part it is a balanced religion.
I think women are drawn to Wicca because of the feminine aspect of divinity.

It depends on the coven. Some covens are women only, some are gays only, some are men only, some are mixed (both men and women). Then it comes to the Pagan religions the only rule is there are no rules.
I've been a witch (yes the term witch is used for both men and women) for a couple dozen years. I've been in half a dozen different covens and they all are different.
Look around and do some study, it might work for you.

Men can be Wiccan as well, and most traditions would welcome them (one exception being Dianic Wicca, which is almost exclusively female, which I personally don't get - how can a spirituality that focuses so much on balance be that far out of balance? I mean, I know the basis for the decision - overcorrection for the patriarchical religions - but it's still out of whack, IMHO. Okay, digression finished...).
Men are also called "Witches" - at least the ones I know call themselves that and they've been following their paths for longer than I've been alive. Heck, Gardner called himself "Witch".

Yes, men and women can be Wiccans. I think you have heard of something called the 'Dianic Wicca', which I'm pretty sure is usually only women.

Any one can follow Wicca. Wicca accepts anyone, no matter their race, sexual orientation, ethnic background or anything else that matters to some other 'people'. They don't discriminate nor do they practice intolerance.
And et cetera, please refrain from spouting off about something you don't understand. Just because you don't follow this path doesn't give you the right to imply that it's "Satan's tool" , otherwise understood to mean that it's evil.

Men can join. So can transexuals. And Gays. And Bisexuals. And Straights. White, Blacks, Asians, any race.
Wicca accepts all.
