I think it’s a little bit of column A, little bit of column B situation. Certainly fandom on the whole favors male characters over female characters, but there’s also the fact that a lot of the shallow female characters tend to be shallow in the same way, whereas shallow male characters get more variety in their defining traits, and there are just more of them in general.

...this is a great point, and now I'm surprised I haven't seen it articulated before, because it's spot-on.

It's the emotional equivalent of how male characters get to have all kinds of body types, while women mostly get variations on "tall, thin, and pretty" or "average height, thin, and pretty."
