This article mentions two wide scale US data sets, but I can't get to the actual data. The studies have pages on the CDC website, but there's an enormous amount of stuff there and no obvious data links:

The best success I've had (but haven't had time to look through in detail) is googling image results for "distribution of number of sexual partners", which produces a number of charts that are ostensibly very, very similar in shape between the sexes.
ETA: Some pages with shit articles (well one in particular) but quite good charts:

I think historically there are statistics of significantly higher rates of men who have 0 children compared to women (I say that, but I'm a bit concerned that sociological factors might overlook deaths in first child birth, which are hugely common in humans historically). You might try looking for data on that as well, if it seems relevant to your interest. And you may have more success there.
