I think a lot of people say they're bi because it sounds "cool". People use the word bisexual loosely sometimes to say for example, I'm interested in experimenting, or to show that they are wild in bed because they say that. I think that's lame. I think real bisexuals didn't choose to be, they just feel that way. I suppose some people will toy with the idea, because they have bisexual feelings of some sort, and eventually "decide"/"realize" they really are bisexual. But I wouldn't call that a choice.
I'd say the reason more women will admit to being bi is definitely society, because two girls getting it on is sexy to men, but the other way round isn't really, it's kind of a taboo, in modern society anyway.

Whether we write or speak or do but look
We are ever unapparent. What we are
Cannot be transfused into word or book.
Our soul from us is infinitely far.
However much we give our thoughts the will
To be our soul and gesture it abroad,
Our hearts are incommunicable still.
In what we show ourselves we are ignored.
The abyss from soul to soul cannot be bridged
By any skill of thought or trick of seeming.
Unto our very selves we are abridged
When we would utter to our thought our being.
We are our dreams of ourselves, souls by gleams,
And each to each other dreams of others' dreams.
Fernando Pessoa, 1918
