Maybe women on average just prefer some jobs more than others?
Really, I'm sure there are millions of factors that enter into to those stats -- about one for every woman because everyone woman is unique with her own goals and tastes -- but I think the occam's razor for this topic is that men and women on average have different preferences.

The bottom line, whatever the reason for discrepancies, is in your daily professional life to treat both sexes the equally.
