I think this is more of a human nature type thing. Men tend to be natural leaders, due to the fact that males' brains are "wired" to be more logical and reasonable. Women's brains are "wired" to be more emotional.

 

This was a topic I studied in an occupational therapy course once. It is less intimidating for women to be given orders than to give the orders, and it reduces the amount of emotions a female feels while performing her work. When a women is in charge, she has to determine if the decisions she is making are the logical choices or the choices her heart would make.

 

A male being in power is more acceptable too. Even after women's liberation, men still hold majority of the positions of power.

 

To make it my jumbled mess short and sweet, it is due to a combination of social norms and human nature.
