Probably because, regardless of gender, both sexes tend to gravitate toward societal norms of beauty, and it seems to be easier for a male to be a beautiful woman (and man) than it is for a woman too be seen as both a beautiful man and woman (and, there just seem to be more of the former than the latter as well).
I think back to photos taken of the crowd that I hung with in the 1980s.
People would say “You can’t tell who the men and who the women are.”
Of course, that was just a polite way of saying what others would say “You all look like girls!”.
Or the expression of those who felt more threatened “You are all a bunch of faggots” (missing the obviousness that there were usually only two or three men among five to six women - Where the women “Faggots” as well?).
