I think it is because (yeah, this will prob sound sexist, get over it) men are (supposed to be) raised to have a certain respect for women. That line seems thin and gray for some actions done to women (since the same action has different effects with different women) but it would be a very large line to cross to actually press charges against a woman and destroy her life for pressing the matter. Granted, some men dance that line all the time, and they usually will have to pay for it in the end, but to not send the women folk into a downward spiral for wanting to sneak a peek, well, that might be one of the last vestiges of chivalry left in the world.
