Male swimmers

Why do most male swimmers opt to share a lane with a female swimmer rather than other males?

I swim every morning at my local leisure centre and there are a few men I've started to notice will always choose to get into the lane with me (female) before they would with another male. I've even had one man who usually swims in fast lanes go into the medium lane even though there was space in one of the fast lanes but would have meant sharing with another man.

Wouldn't it make sense to go in with other males, especially if you have to start rotating?
