There's an excellent comment there:

There was study done at some university, I guess it was back in the 80's, that explored this very same phenomenon.
The professor ran it twice: first as a simple questionnaire, where he got the standard results. Then he ran it again, but this time using an old lie detector machine the school had in storage.
He expected the men's number to decline -- he assumed that men were braggarts, and had been exaggerating. What happened instead was the men's number barely moved -- the women's number rose to meet it.
