I worked as an engineer, Engineering Manager and now as a Pastor of a small church in a rural community. I discovered that women in the workplace often preferred the company of men due to the more factually based work environment than the emotionally charged environment that women created. A woman who was a good leader, treated people fairly and had a good sense of humor and self did well. Women who were in competition for emotional validation were universally disliked by the men and women who had to suffer under them. Logical reasoning and decision making versus emotional reasoning and demanding adherence are truly the endpoints of a spectrum of how workplaces function.

This is absolutely my experience with women outside the technical functions (I'm a solution architect). They don't support meritocracy and can't handle a woman beating them. What sucks is most men don't notice this so good for you for seeing it.
