Well, in my house, the In Style magazines in the bathroom outnumber my books by a fair margin (they're heavier, too). Maybe some of us just like overcoming stereotypes.
Slightly more seriously, it could be because men only have to sit down for the second of those two activities. This may be a shot in the dark, but maybe women are just used to having to sit down every time, whereas men get bored if it takes longer than the 45 seconds or so it takes us to pee.

To get in the "mood"? I'm never in there long enough at home to read anything, but if traveling or away from home...I need a "mood enhancer" to feel...whatever I feel at home....safe? relaxed? alone?
If in a public place away from home, I may be distracted from having to go by noise, lack of privacy, and/or strangeness. I find myself looking at the floor (how clean it is or isn't), the spaces between the tiles on the floor, or how big the space is between the stall walls, or ANYTHING that might make me feel at home (texture in the woodwork...or looking for idiotic reading material scratched on the doors--just so I can let the necessary body parts relax and do their thing. But I'm not a guy.
Dad used to take the Sunday paper in there. I didn't want to read the comics AFTERward...

I don't know about women, but there's nothing like unbending the mind with a good story while at free dangle. Out of curiousity, explain how you are a short flight.

I suppose that it is better to stare at the magazine than to read the graffiti or stare at a blank wall.
What do women do instead? Just sit and daydream until done?
