I think that a lot of it has to do with gender stereotypes. Gender stereotypes are simplistic generalizations about the gender attributes, roles or differences. There have been many studies on this topic. Men are perceived as being more competent and stronger leaders, regardless of whether or not they are. And taller men are perceived as being smarter and more competent than shorter men. Also, certain professions have a boys' club mentality surrounding them. For example, women are often intimidated by the thought of taking computer science classes where they will be the only female in the class.
