Concurring with what Paul said, I asked my husband, a cultural anthropologist who has worked with youth around issues of masculinity, to share his thoughts. His informed opinion is that its about hierarchy and the expectation that men are supposed to be superior to women. He thinks that when boys and men want to be be-like/dress-like women, it's a much greater threat to the social order than when girls and women want to be-like/dress-like men.
