I don't think there's as much of a "gender card" as many think, especially now that there are females working in the NBA and NFL.
But a female official with any talent at all will be working a full college schedule in less than 5 years and will be working at the D1 level in less than 10 (or even earlier). That rarely happens on the men's side. Why would a female official make that choice? Especially when there's a huge thumb on the scale at every level for females in the women's game....
